He said to install appserv, which is another combination package. It was a very primitive form of english, possibly dating around 50,000BC. 
Dude, please try to speak modern english.
Unfortunately, I haven't used xampp. From the docs on their website, it looks like one of the more complicated triads. I would recommend IBServer, which is here. It's got a GUI, which means you wouldn't have to run anything under the command line.

I don't understand. I just wanted to test my PHP files before installing them onto my website.
Can anyone tell me how to do that?
I downloaded xampp because it was the most widely recommended one and now, people are suggesting other things. :?

i use xampp. just get the whole package and install it. then copy your website to the directory e.x apachefriendsxampphtdocs (remember to make a new directory in there for example htdocsmysite). then run the file "xampp_start.exe" which is located in apachefriendsxampp . a browser window will pop up. you can make change with mysqladmin etc. from there. if you want to see your site, in the browser adress type for example http://localhost/mysite/index.php (it depends on your site, figure it out).. when you want to close xampp run "xampp_stop"... give it a try and tell us

hpforums, Go for manuall installation if ou just want to use PHP as then you can just install Apache 2.0.52 and PHP 4.3.10, plus saves on diskspace!
Manual installation is far better than all-in-one installers as then you will gather knowledge of how to manually install Apache and PHP!
You can go here to find out how to install manually!

good luck!

Viewing php and other scripts in xampp
How to use xampp?
To Do this,
Find the xamp/htdocs/xaampp file folder. Store your php and any other scripts you want to view in this file folder.
If you want to store the script in another filefolder, create the folder in the htdocs folder.
When you want to display it on your browser, type the path to this file folder in the address or URL bar:
For ex: http://localhost/xampp/filename.Php or
Http://localhost/xam...me/filename.Php
This should load up the file for you.

Of course above all that, you need to have the services running on your PC. The 3 services available are apache and mysql. Filezilla is bundled as well, but you don't really need that if you are just simply testing out PHP pages.

go to xaamp website and look for zip file full or lite and extract in a folder xaamp below the root folder say c:\ or d:\ etc. run xaamp control panel, and enable appache and mysql. launch your web browser and type localhost or 127.0.0.1
and here goes your site running.

Actually, he could always install IIS and PHP. (Assuming he has windows) Go to control panel -> add or remove program-> windows components and install IIS. Then download PHP and install that. I would more recommend that you install Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP on a virtual machine instead.

ResponseHow to use xampp?
Its very easy to use, so that you can c the result of your php from your localhost.
1. First after installing your xampp, click your xampp shortcut menu from your desktop.
2. Second click to start your apache and mysql.
3. Put all your php file, to put php file is go to drive c: then choose xampp folder and choose htdocs, HTDOCS where you will put your all php files.
4. To see your php results: type http:localhosttest.Php
Thats it
Good luck

it works for me as well. I think the trick is to type / manually redirect the browser by typing as you suggested the http//localhost/mysite.Php.
Previousl y I just let the explorer default to the browser if I were to "run" my php file, and it didn't work.
Thanks for the forum.
