I just installed the PDT all in one package, and I am looking for a simple
example of how to run a script as a web page. As an aside, the downloads
page doesn't list the needed prerequisites for installing PDT, it just
says that "Runtime package only includes the PDT project build. Required
prerequisites should be already installed." Anyway, I'm of the
understanding that PDT comes with its own internal web server, is this
correct? Should I have my own server downloaded and installed first? I
created a basic script in PHP 4.4.7, and when I try to run as a web page,
I get a "This program cannot display the webpage " error in the internal
web browser. I have configured the default web server with the "publish"
option enabled, with no luck. Any tips would be appreciated!
Thanks

you don't need a web server to execute php scripts, but if you need the
output of your php script to be sent to a web browser, then you will need
a web server, otherwise you can just execute the script and you get the
output into the console.
Looking at PDT 0.7rc3, I don't see any internal web server so this is why
documentation suggests you use apache or some other external web server. I haven't
looked at the latest PDT M1 version which is now using WTP 2.0 as a pre-req
which may include some sort of internal web server. If this is the case
then probably no-one has looked into this yet. Maybe you could do this and
provide some feedback ?
