I am a Windows programmer and getting started on PHP. What is the easiest way 
of getting started? Most of the stuff I encounter seems to be very Linux 
specific.

What webserver are you using? Or are you looking just at command line usage?

The PHP documentation covers a wide range of setups.

http://docs.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.php
http://docs.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.manual.php
http://docs.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.commandline.php

for example.

If you are using IIS7, then you can use Web Platform Installer (WPI)
to automatically install FastCGI and then PHP (I'd also add WinCache
and RewriteURL).

Richard.

Another option for IIS7+ is PHP Manager [1].

Keerat - I've been in the same boat myself lately.
Microsoft provides an entire platform for PHP - that should be the easiest
way I guess. You can find more info on
http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/773/how-to-install-the-microsoft-web-platform-for-php
?WT.mc_id=soc-c-in-loc--cfp
Hope this helps.

It would help if you're more specific on your objective.  If you want to get 
started on developing projects based on PHP but you're using Windows, like 
myself, then you'll need to learn how set it up for Windows, either for IIS or 
Apache httpd.  Thereafter, deployment platform target is irrelevant except 
where your project(s) use platform specific extensions such as Wincache or IIS. 
 However, if you want to develop PHP extensions specifically for Windows, 
you're better off asking in the windows list (php-wind...@lists.php.net).

Tommy

Gary,

You'll have to wait a very long time for that. IIRC, the official word (via
windows list) is that PHP 6 is cancelled.  The next official release is 5.4.

Tommy

    Well, not canceled, just postponed.  It goes back and forth all
the time, and has for years.  I wouldn't be surprised if we skipped
PHP6 and just released PHP7 (being facetious).

Hello all,

I have recently built a site using PHP. I was a little loose with GET and POST methods because I was using it for personal/private use. Now I am thinking of going public and allow different companies to use the site. I want to secure and hide as much data as possible to guard against user abuse.

I have several instances where I use the GET method to pass IDS. I can use a POST but even that is visible in the source. How does one allow for processing but never really let the user see that actual ID? Do I use a HASH for IDs? Do I need to get more familiar with SESSION VARS.

I am doing some experimenting. Any words of wisdom or resources would be helpful. Thanks!
