I bought the same book and now that i'm well past the php basics my
personal opinion of it is that its a pile of steaming poo .
As a php newbie it didnt tell me what i wanted to know and lots of stuff
it does tell you is the sort of stuff you will never use .

Do a google search for XAMMP as this will install apache/php/mysql on
your windows pc without the need to edit any config files .
http://localhost
Use the above url in your browser regardless if you are online or
offline , Be sure and copy your website folder(s) to the /xammp/htdocs/
folder on your hard disk or it wont work .
e.g.
/xammp/htdocs/yourwebsitefolder
To roughly sum up , Your windows pc will now work in the exact same way
as your php webspace .
