If you require MySQL support, please download the version 3 https://sourceforge.net/projects/phpbrowserbox3/ or latest version.

How it works:
It does not need an installation, you just run it directly from a pc, you can even run from your flashdrive. And it does not conflict with regular servers like wamp or other apache server.

Once the browser loads, it starts its internal php server and displays the default index.php almost immediately.

Developers Info:

• The browser links to its internal homepage with a link like http://localhost:5562/index.php
  The port number here 5562 is a random value that is generated by the application.
  A new port number is generated each time, but you can control your port number by editing port.ini

e.g. Port=1021 - this will always use this port permanently. Which means the browser's homepage url will be http://localhost:1021/index.php

Lets say for instance, you downloaded the phpbrowserbox and duplicate the folder so that you have:
phpbrowser1 with port 81, and another folder
phpbrowser2 with port 82

Both browser boxes will use different homepage urls - http://localhost:81/index.php and http://localhost:82/index.php

The index.php for each browserbox is located inside the \support\inetpub - this is where to start your application development.
