I'm not sure what you're asking.

php does not run on a port, it just gets called by apache when a php file needs to be processed.

If you need to run apache on a different port, indicate the port in your httpd.conf file, and you can use multiple ports with the LISTEN option.

thanks richie for the reply,
Then can I have two different apache threads listening on 2 ports. The main thread will handle only HTML pages and the other thread will handle only PHP requests.
How should i go about it. Please reply.
Thanks
