    This is not exactly a PHP problem, i am looking to learn PHP while I have free time in office (i have loads of it!). Is there any online service/tool where i can run my php 'programs' and see the results ?

    Get a cheap / free host and use a domain for testing. Otherwise you can install something like LAMP on a PC a test locally. If it's at work, I would probably opt for the testing domain option. Godaddy's got .info domains for 1.99 right now.

    I think you should download XAMPP, It can run well on Window and Linux. and you can run it on localhost

    There are 2 options for you.

    First is get it setup on your local machine as localhost and download Wamp server which includes PHP5, MySQL5, Apache2 and PHPMyAdmin it works on both windows and linux.

    Second is create a free account on any free PHP web hosting company eg: awardspace.com or any other, upload all your PHP files there and test them.

    Regards,
    Gonzo

    I prefer you install Apache, PHP 4 and 5 and MySQL using XAMPP. You shall be able to run a testing purpose server on your home PC itself. This is advantageous because you won't have to waste time in uploading files, or downloading the output. Moreover, on a home PC, you always have the opportunity to correct your goofs without letting others exploit it.
