Please provide details of your operating systems so that I can give you some recommendations. regards Norbert "Greg Klotz" <gregcklotz@xxxxxxxxx> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:20041014141406.81994.qmail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Hello > I'm wondering if it's possible to simply run PHP pages and make SQL queries on my computer using local files and creating a local database without having to install and run a web server. Basically, I'd like to be able to create the PHP pages and test them locally in a browser window on my computer before I upload them to a server, and not have to install and run a web server. Right now, when I run the files locally, the PHP code is written to the browser page rather than executed. Is there a way to install a minimum of PHP software components for local file testing?
