Hi, I've been a programmer for 3+ years, and know a good bit of many languages, however, I've never tried my hand at networking, why I don't know dumb decision I suppose on my part.

Anyways, I'm making a Project Management System for my father's business, and there is no deadline, and I was referring to this Flex tutorial

on making a login system, and they use PHP server side script that checks all login events, etc and never ever have programmed in PHP or any server side language I was wondering what I would need to install on my system to make this tutorial work by tonight as in software install this, and here is a good reference of PHP when I need to use it.

I sorta know I need to make a server on my desktop, and run the script on that so called server, but after that I'm lost on where to start.

Thanks,
