PHP on local computer

[Anon]

Hey,

Is there a way to view PHP pages on my computer other then installing a web server program?

It's the easiest one.
You can also only install the php, and process files, capture the output and open it with a browser -- but a webser does it automatically. I use xitami here at home and I am really happy with it.

The page can be on any web server you can reach anywhere in the world. Installing a local server is really easy, but you could always find a web hosting service and FTP you pages there, would only cost a few dollars a month (but of course a local server is free).
