Quick help (php people only)
I'm in the process of trying to learn PHP and I'm wondering if there's an alternative to downloading a WAMP server? Can I just use a free webhost to practice my PHP? Thanks.

Nevermind, I got it. :p

WAMP? Is that one of those things that installs a localhost for you? Bleh. Install each separately.
Go to their official websites, and download/install Apache and PHP. MySQL when you get that far, too.
WAMP/XAMP just take up extra RAM each time the server runs just to do the hard work for you during install.

But, yes, the best thing you can get is a localhost. :)
