PHP is pretty much the same, the only difference I've ever noticed in how to install them...
About Foxserv, phpdev, phptriad, phperl and so on: They'll work nice and great.. But within few days, you'll anyway find yourself changing the config files manually. :p Installing all manually isn't hard at all... If you want help, I can guide you through it... If you wanna use PHP/Apache, it's better to setup them yourself.. That way you'll understand just about everything better.. :) Ryan: just wondering, does the acronym 'FH' mean anything to you (it was a host)? -- // DvDmanDT MSN: dvdmandt€hotmail.com Mail: dvdmandt€telia.com "Ryan A" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> skrev i meddelandet news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Hey, > Sorry I cant answer all your questions but can answer one important one, I > have tried foxserv and triad and quite a few others...finally what I settled > down to was phpdev (do a search on google to see where to download.) its > packed with features and I have never had a problem with it from the time I > installed it.
