    well
    from what i know

    php is a server side programing, mysql is the database server,
    and you need web server like apache.
    and you can simply install phptriad, it's install php, mysql, and apache, you can get it here

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/phptriad

      Technically you don't need a webserver to run PHP...

      But that could be straying from the point.

      PHP - Hypertext Preprocessor (The bit that does the work in providing the functionality)
      PHPMyAdmin - A php based web application that deals with MySQL (database) and allows you to view the database intuitively
      MySQL - A Database - used for storing data and is very useful - PHP can "query" this database very effectively.
      Webserver - if you want to display the results from PHP, this is a very handy medium in which to do it. There are numerous ones out there, Apache, IIS to name but two.

      As to learning PHP - this is a good place to start, as well as numerous books on the subject - one of which was written by some people from this very board... search for it as I don't have the link to hand.
