Testing PHP code w/ minimum software
I am trying to learn PHP over the summer while I'm here bored at work. I tried to download and install the newest version PHP from the PHP website, but it asked me what kind of server I wanted to run. Since I'm only really wanting to test my PHP code for the learning experience and I really have no interest in running a server AND I'm at a desktop at work with no access to a server is there anyway I can test my PHP code at work? I can install software but I definetly want to install the minimum amount of software just so I can tinker around and see what PHP is capable of. Sorry if this is an ignorant question I basically have a working knowledge of simple java/c++ and am looking to broaden my horizons. Appreciate any help/advice.

RE: Testing PHP code w/ minimum software
Well the server (Ex: Apache) can also be installed on a desktop for testing purposes (as well as the MySQL database) with no outside connections required (other then for the download). The whole AMP stack can be a stand alone.
If however you don't want to do all that - PHP also works from the command line. check out here in the manual to learn about that. |
