In this tutorial ill teach how to run a server with Xammp!!!!

Download Xammp here

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xampp/xampp-win32-1.4.exe?download

After you download the file make a folder called this   xammp in the C:Drive.

Then open the xammp download file and extract all files to the folder you just created in the
C:Drive.

Then go to the folder you created and extracted stuff to and open it to the main page with
all the stuff.

and look for a file called this      setup_xammp and click that and follow instructions and
It will install MySQL and PHp Apache and other stuff.
after that look for a file called     apache_start
then it will start apache NOTE: you must have the  file   apache_start always running
for apache to run so dont exit it.

now you have Apache running and you can run a server with PHp files and other stuff.

go here to go to the main Menu of Xammp

http://localhost/xampp/splash.php


remember that cant be accessed from other computers only yours so you must replace your
ip for it so other people in diffrent countries also can access it.

go here to see what your ip address is 

http://www.urgentclick.com/whats_my_ip_address.php

then add your ip address to like this

http://Your IP HERE/xammp/splash.php
OK.

Now you should hide your IP address in your URL so people cant hack you as easily go here
so it will get you a address with no IP showing

no-ip.com

and register a free domain and it will replace with your IP ADDRESS

SO thats it ill add more stuff or change the tutorial around if i  made mistakes.

Regards
Homie
