Yes PHP is completely free and yes, you can use it on any Operating

But for programming in PHP you don't need to have PHP.

How are you going to program in PHP if you don't have it?

Even if you're using a server to run your scripts, you need it
somewhere. And personally, I prefer to have development on my local
system.

Notepad doesn't have PHP and one can code on it. The problem is for
testing ;) But that's testing, not programming.

AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH! If you can say this with a straight face,
then I
would NEVER hire you! "programming" include:
(a) design
(b) roughing it out
(c) coding (what you refer to as programming)
(d) debugging
(e) testing
(f) more testing
(g) even more testing
(h) upgrades
(i) more testsing of upgrades
etc.

Yeah yeah I know... And I do that. I just mean when I started
programming PHP I didn't have a server software.

And I don't refer that as programming. I just mean that even with free
hosting you can program and do everything you want. You don't actually
need a server software to PROGRAM! It sure is more easy to have it on
ur own PC, but it's not a MUST.

I can agree with that. It was just the distinction you made between
programming and testing that got me. Now, if you had made the distinction
between CODING and testing, well.......

In fact, I have a server from my son's business that I use for testing. I
don't have php loaded on my local machines. However, Dreamweaver does have
nice color coding for the different things, so that helps.
