php/mysql

[vvd101]

Hello,

I am completely new to PHP but have extensive experience of the J2EE. We are planning to develop a commercial website in PHP and MySQL. We will be hosting it on Linux host. I want to know what kind of development environment should I set up. We are used to developing on Windows and then pushing the applications on Unix servers. Can I do something similar in PHP i.e. develop & test on Windows platform and push it onto Linux at regular intervals? Is PHP cross-platform i.e. if I develop and test code on Windows will it work on Linux?

Your help on this will be greatly apprecaiated.

Please also point me to any documents on this topic.

Thanks a lot.

If you have a lot of experience with J2EE then you might want to look at "phrame". It is a similiar to Struts for PHP. Yes. You can develop on you PC and push up releses. That is what we do.
