I'm new to PHP. An experienced IT professional, albeit in the Windows environment, but this is uncharted territory. Please bear with me, paricularly if I've missed answers in the archives. I also find the install notes with the PHP file distribution complicated.
My core question is this. How do I get a working PHP (and SQLite) environment on a Windows 7 PC? I'm building a bookseller website which will have the book inventory stored as an SQLite database, produced by AbeBooks' Homebase 3.0 product. I want to develop and test this locally, then move it to the hosting ISP's server. Can anybody provide a step-by-step set of instructions to make this development environment happen? Many thanks, Charlie Lewis
