Can someone help me out on geting and installing PHP, Apache, and mySQL?

Okay. Looking in my www.google.com crystal ball, I see the following links:

http://www.webmasterstop.com/tutorials/apache-php-mysql-installation.shtml for windows

and

http://www.mkaz.com/reference/php/setup_linux.html

next, you might wanna try

www.mysql.com and read the docs there found here http://www.mysql.com/documentation/index.html

www.php.net and the doc here http://www.php.net/docs.php

http://www.apache.org/ with docs here http://httpd.apache.org/docs/

To make things easier for ya, try www.webmin.com and has a handy-dandy web interface for *NIX servers.

Good luck

Hey Hey

I didn't see it mentioned in albn's post so i'll include it... if you're using a win machine and since you mentioned FrontPage i'm going to assume you are.
I highly recommend getting PHPTriad if you don't want to read the docs to setup Apache, MySQL and PHP yourself.

As far as setting it up yourself, you install the apache server change a few things in the config file which if this is a win system is in c:\program files\apache group\apache2\conf by default (or somewhere around there)
Install php to a folder.. add 1 or 2 more lines to the httpd.conf file
install MySQL (no config done, just add it as a service)
and you're ready to go
