Look at this package. http://www.apachefriends.org/en/ check out XAMPP Its will provide a complete set of programs that have been tested together. Perfect for a newbie. WARNING: check to see what versions you may need - depending on what your final host is configured for. This may dictate the package versions for PHP, mysql and apache. We have settled on PHP 4.3.5, mysql 3.23.56, apache 1.3.27 If you want the compile commands we used email me off-list and I'll email them to you. We used these versions because our online server uses them and we wanted to keep our development server at or close to the same revision level and with the same function sets.
