php4

[john townsley]

Hi

If I install a copy of php4 on winXP home, I get a screen prompt when
booting the computer. I think it is user, guest and admin logon. How do I
get rid of this alltogether. I just want to tinker with php on my home
computer without any screen interuption on boot up.

Correct me if I am wrong but I forget if this was apache or php doing this
screen.
If I want to use php,mysql on winXP what Sever do people
recommend...Apache,Xitami (hopefully free of course), what php version.

If you've got the speed for downloading I would suggest getting a
bundle.
phptriad, easyphp, phpdev, winlamp and the like.

If you want to do each singly, then Apache (probably ver 1.3, 2 if
you're adventurous), php (at least ver 4.3), mysql (ver 3.23 and up) and
a mysql GUI thingy like phpmyadmin.
There'll probably be a few tweaks to make in http.conf (apache) and
php.ini (php) ... personal preferences stuff.
