Yeah! In fact, there are several packages designed to install on a USB
drive
and as such are portable. I'm using "Uniform Server". It has Apache,
PHP,
MySQL, and some other stuff... I haven't tried any of the other
packages,
because this one works so well. Easiest setup I've ever had, updating
PHP
was a matter of copying a couple files into a directory.
Like someone else pointed out, it isn't "emulation", it's actually
serving
pages (configured to only accept from localhost by default in this
case).
Before that, I was using a remotely located text editor of my own.
Pretty
crude, it just posted the content of a textarea, and PHP saved the
file.
But it did the job.
