How to test PHP scripts with internal HTTP server

The internal HTTP server (IHS) enables to test PHP scripts without a need for external server. To properly view the output of PHP script, some variables should be defined:

• Document Root: The directory where documents (PHP scripts, HTML ...) will be served. All requests are taken from this directory so documents which will be served, must be accessible from this directory. Document root can be easily defined by using document root panel. This panel also enables quickly access the documents under the document root
  
  
  
  
• PHP Interpreter: IHS executes php.exe as a CGI (Common Gateway Interface) module and serves the output. The location of php.exe must be defined in "Environmental Options" dialog. This is also required for Syntax Check command
• PHP Extension(s): IHS will detect PHP scripts by checking whether their extension match with these values
  
  
  
  
• Default Documents: IHS will try to serve default documents when the requested document name is not specified.
• Server Port: IHS will accept requests from this port (default value is 7905). Ensure that specified port is not used by other applications.
