starting with PHP

Post by rain1138 »

have build a website using some ASP features, and now I am realising that the most advantageous web hosts in my country use Linux Servers rather than Windows ... so i am deciding that my next to learn topic is PHP. Eventually, if i create php pages on my windows based PC, when it comes the time to upload my database on a Linux server, will I be facing any incompatibilities ?

Moreover, rather than uploading the scripts online and test them there, I would prefer that i'll a local web based server. Currently, I have installed the IIS on my PC, which I used to use to test my ASP pages ... is it fine if i keep on using the web server, or it would be better if I install Apache. Morover, if the recommendation to the above is to install Apache, is it wise to have both IIS and Apache installed on the same partition, or ideally I should be running just one of them ?

Thanks
