    Can someone give me this and give advice for A webserver or webhosting account?

    * A webserver or web hosting account running on any major Operating System
    * A SQL database system, one of:
    o MySQL (3.22 or higher)
    o PostgreSQL 7.0.3 or higher (preferably 7.1.x or 7.2.x)
    o MS SQL Server (7 or 2000) directly or via ODBC
    o MS Access (2000 or XP) via ODBC
    * PHP (3.0.9 and above or preferably a recent 4.x) with support for the database you intend to use above

    You'll probably find that nearly every host provides you with one of those types of databases (usually MySQL) and PHP. Even the cheapest hosting plans should really include this.

    Since there are literally 10,000's of hosting companies out there, its quite hard to recommend one over another, so its best to ask for recommendations from people you know.

    You can install webserver on your computer or a spare one that has Apache, CGI, PHP, and MySQL all rolled into one program. The program is called "Yellowtip Webserver" and it is easily installed. You can get it at http://www.yellowtip.com/downloads/index.php
