I've used WAMP and it fitted my needs. I've also heard that XAMPP is good too so try it out, although I've never tried it. I've definitely learned a lot about PHP and MySQL and such while running my own server so keep learning and soaking up knowledge. Just start reading some guides/tutorials on how to do certain things and you'll find it easier and easier to do yourself.

i used wamp and i used no-ip to get a free domain but instead of my home page my router page comes and i also have problem with mail function.
does any one have any idea.

You most likely have Network Address Translation set incorrectly in your router.

The problem is your router has two sides to it, one is on the insider and is probably 192.168.1.1 or similar, and the other in the internet which will have a completely different IP. no-ip is seeing your ROUTERS IP address (the internet one) and thus your domain just goes straight to the router. What you need to do is tell your router to show your computers ip address instead.

I Cant help much as im not sure how to go about that, but you probably need to disable NAT on your router or setup some sort of port forwarding so all requests on port 80 go straight through the router to your PC/server
