How to use it? (no-install version)
2
Download

• Google xampp for windows or use this direct
  link http//www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-window
  s.html
• Choose either XAMPP or XAMPP-Lite, both will work
  for PHP
• Download either the zip archive or the self
  extracting 7-zip archive (same content but
  different size, get the 7-zip because it is a
  smaller download)

3
Extract

• Extract the zip / 7-zip wherever you want

4
Configuring file paths(do this only the first
time you use xampp whenever you change the
location of the xampp folder)

• Open the XAMPP folder (where you extracted it)
• Run the setup-xampp.bat file
• All paths in the configuration will be updated
  automatically

5
Start Apache

• Run the XAMPP control panel application
  (xampp-control.exe) from the XAMPP folder
• Start the Apache module

6
Test xampp

• In your browser go to either of the two
  addresseshttp//localhost or http//127.0.0.1

7
Where to put your php files?

• Go to the XAMPP folder, find htdocs directory.
• This is the root directory for your server. Put
  all .php files that you want to run here.
• For example if you have a file called test.php
  in the htdocs directory, you can run it from your
  browser by going to http//localhost/test.php or
  http//127.0.0.1/test.php
