Windows and PHP

I received an email yesterday about using Windows with PHP and it prompted me to realize I haven't talked about PHP and portability between UNIX and Windows yet. My primary testing environments are all UNIX based, you should probably know, and although my code examples haven't been tested on Windows, I see no reason why they shouldn't work. Please let me know if you find out otherwise and I can add the Windows alternative in. At any rate I know of one resource you can look to for getting PHP configured on a Windows server:

http://www.imatix.com/html/xitami/index.htm   - The Xitami server works well with PHP, is well documented, and is freeware, and it even can run Perl scripts too!

Y2k-related issues kept me busy today so not much time for self study. Although I want to get into searching next, so look for information on searching external urls to either pop up here later today or over the next few days.

Please vote on what you think of this diary entry :)
