How to enable PHP in Mac OSX 10.5

Posted by Jake Rutter as Web

I had read online that Mac OSX 10.5 now ships with PHP, but by default it is not enabled. I found a great article online which walks you through how to do so. Perfect for setting up a development environment.

    Just download and install MAMP. It’s the deadset easiest application of php/apache.

    I have used MAMP before, but what I dont like is that you cant share it over a network. Its only local dev, but with built-in apache, and php you can share your pages over a network.
