Thanks for the info, but I've got 6 months. I was in a rush, my bad for not doing up front research. I will certainly keep your words in mind and plan on changing hosts. Fortunately my needs are simple for the foreseeable future. Now that I look at current versions, I'm embarrassed that I got taken so badly. But that's orthogonal to what I need now. (But any tips on how to find a good host appreciated)

Still, my main concern now is setting up NetBeans for php/mysql dev. I'm hoping to get some links to best practice with NB docs so I won't start digging in the wrong spot.

If your starter kit package doesn't offer a current PHP, you have a crap host. Likely there will be many other problems. I strongly suggest finding a better one. [my day job is web hosting, I have seen many horror stories from cheap hosts].

Hi all,

Perhaps I'm finally reaching the late 20th century...

I've gotten a web hosting package (starter kit). It has mysql and php; php 5.6 by default, can select 7.0. (MySql seems to be 5.6, coincidence?)

Will someone(kindly or otherwise) point me to docs that show how to set up NB-12 with a server to write/debug/test php/mysql stuff locally?

Is there any disadvantage to selecting php 7.0?
