Installing IIS and PHP on Windows
Microsoft Windows remains the operating system of choice even among most open
source??“minded developers, largely due to reasons of convenience; after all, as the
dominant desktop operating system, it makes sense that most would prefer to continue
using this familiar environment. Yet for reasons of both stability and performance,
deploying PHP-driven Web sites on Linux running an Apache Web server has historically
been the best choice.
But this presents a problem if you??™d like to develop and even deploy your PHPdriven
Web site on a Windows server running the Microsoft IIS Web server.
