What program would I use to compile php codes? How would I then use them on my webserver? I have installed php (not sure which version) but how do I use the scripts after I compile them. I am using windows XP Pro and Apache 1.3. Also How do I configure apache to run with php? When I installed php it gave me the option to automaticly configure apache, but declined to do so saying it didn't support it yet. thanks

YOU dont compile php, it's phased by a web server....
if you're local hosting it is done automatically by apache/iis, and if you do itonlie it's the same, just upload the files :s

php is a script (that's why its under the scripting languages) it is parsed by your web server (as stated by suRoot). And contrary to some peoples opinion you cannot program in PHP (or for that matter ASP, HTML) they are both scripting languages
