Virtual PHP Server

sternbildchen · Post by **sternbildchen** » 29 Jan 2007, 13:23

Hi guys. I finally thought about learning some PHP and installed the virtual server OmniSecure, but the problem is that I can't make I work with php code. The server works, but it doesn't "uses" the php code.

Can anyone help me with this virtual server ? Or can u suggest me another virtual server tool to learn and run php on my own pc?

I got another question: Which editor do you use to write the php files? Notepad gets a little bit useless when programming in different files. ^^

I'm sure gogeta or someone else knows a usefull programm.

I use Text Pad, it has a lot of features including syntax highlighting...useful for pretty any kinds of development, you can get it in the downloads...

With PHP programming, i would suggest Notepad2, which you can get here. It has syntax highlighting, line duplication, line numbering, etc. It's specifically targeted toward programmers. Here, let me show you a screen shot:
