Useful local web server for testing PHP

[hermanthebold]

Hey all.
I found this easy to set up local web server package yesterday. It's especially helpful for debugging PHP scripts before you upload them to your www. Don't forget about the limitations on your account in terms of PHP tho, as the local web server will/should let you do everything whereas on your x10 account you may have restrictions.

XAMPP is also to do this

Yep, Xampp from www.apachefriends.org is very easy to install & use. And ... there are versions for Mac OS & Linux.

I use Abyss, mainly because of the fact that it has a web based CP and I can simulate x10 restrictions

I have installed XAMPP. But you have to be on your system for doing the work.
Since i find some free time in the office, i loved to do my work there. but i have to install XAMPP, MYSQL etc.

Now i have installed and configured XAMPLITE on my Pen drive. No i can do my work anywhere. Only requirement is a PC.
