I cannot create .php pages. I open them in my browser and it does not work. Do I need apache or some other type of server, and do I need to install PHP?

Make sure that your computer has permissions to access the database, then run the program as normal

You also need to have PHP installed on your pc to use it as a local development platform. I suggest going with Apache2Triad available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/apache2triad/ It automatically installs PHP integrated with MySQL. I used this setup to develop the website http://www.toucanmultimedia.com

You need to enable IIS on your PC (it comes with Windows 200 Professional and XP Professional) and then configure PHP to run under IIS:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.iis.php
Alternatively, you can install Apache and then configure PHP to run under Apache:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.apache2.php
