I suggest XAMPP as an all-in-one package for development work.
It includes the following (free of charge):
Apache HTTPD 2.2.11 + Openssl 0.9.8i (Web server)
MySQL 5.1.30 (database)
PHP 5.2.8
phpMyAdmin 3.1.1 (Database Management)
FileZilla FTP Server 0.9.29
Mercury Mail Transport System 4.52
URL: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html
For a simple (and free) PHP and SQL editor, Notepad++ is my choice. If you
find that does not meet your needs, there are many others such as NuSphere,
Zend Studio, ActiveState Komodo, Eclipse, etc. All have their good and
not-so-good attributes that will spark debate ad infinitum.

I am teaching myself how to program in php. What do I need to load into my
laptop so I can review in a browser what I've composed?

I have a problem not being able to connect to a MSSQL database on my laptop
from a php application I wrote, however I can access the same database from
Enterprise Manager no problem. The connect code looks like:-
$link = mssql_connect($servername, $dbusername, $dbpassword) or die("Unable to
connect to T4T database");
and of course I consistently get "Unable to connect...........".
Where do I need to start looking.
