So you want to start setting up PHP on your local machine? Lucky for you finding this post was the hardest part. First of all you need a web-server. All this means is that you need to setup software on the pc so that you can serve web pages. This has all been pre-packaged by an freeware application (GPL licence) called WAMP (Windows Apache MySQL PHP). Search google here Apache - web-server MySQL - database PHP - coding language After this is finished installing go to the WWW folder specified while installing (usually c:\wamp\www) and edit the file 'index.php'. If you do not have a PHP editor you can use notepad. A good editor and I also recommend notepad++. Download and install the exe file for an easy installation. In here you can delete everything and start with you general opening php tag <?php Remember to close the tag with a ?> ex. <?php echo "Hello world"; ?> Thats it .... Have fun!
