RE: php script
Please include more information. Have you used PHP before? do you know what it does? If not don't be embarrassed - everyone was there. What do you mean "install them"? You don't install PHP scripts, you run them, using PHP... and you need a web server too... and you need to install MySQL if you want a database... If you don't know whether or not MySQL, Apache web server, or PHP are installed, then they are not. To check that the scripts access a database, do a text search for "mysql_query", or "SELECT" and "DELETE" and "INSERT" and any other SQL that you think may have been used. Alternatively, run the scripts and check functionality - if the site has functionality that is best implemented using a database, then it probably uses one.
