Just two PHP questions

As mentioned before, I am new to php. Till now I was trying to execute the
file online. However, I have got Apache tomcat on my system which runs JSP
files perfectly, including the database interactions.

I am now trying to run PHP using apache on localhost. Can you please advice:

1) What exactly I need to download for running PHP on Apache.
2) What should be the location of the downloaded PHP folder/file/executable
so that it interacts easily with Apache.
3) Settings if any !

I have an older version of Apache tomcat which is 5.0. I do not use the
Apache Start and Stop options but Start and Stop bat files to run and stop
apache.

Thanks in advance.

1) What exactly I need to download for running PHP on Apache.
PHP the latest version

2) What should be the location of the downloaded PHP folder/file/executable
so that it interacts easily with Apache.
Any, but if you prefer tu indicate an installation directory you may do that
by specifing it during configuration: configure -options_here

3) Settings if any !
Read the manual, there are many settings you can set, but basically almost
all of them depend upon your production or testing environment

The easiest way to run Apache and PHP on localhost for a developer
environment is by using Apache Friends XAMPP
(http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html)

It is ridiculously easy to set up for someone new to LAMPP, and there are
versions for Linux, Windows and Mac OSX
