- Setting up a PHP development environment for Dreamweaver
PHP pages need to be processed through a web server. So, to develop with PHP in Dreamweaver, you need access to a PHP-enabled web server and the MySQL database. It's also useful to have a graphical interface to MySQL. You can install all of them independently, but the quickest and easiest way is to use an all-in-one solution, such as XAMPP. This section describes how to install XAMPP on your Windows computer. This installs the Apache web server, MySQL, and a MySQL front end called phpMyAdmin in a single operation. All three components are open source software that you can use for developing, testing, and deploying web applications—and they are free!
