Hi,
Can anyone tell, how to detect whether PHP is installed or not? I want to find out this with the help of Registry in Windows? Is it possible?

?? its not somthing you would search the registry for, you must have a running server, and then download and set up PHP, i say setup because PHP is not somthing that installed persay.
to see if it is installed. create a PHP file like this
[PHP]<?php
phpinfo(); //will display all of the phpinfo if php is installed else will print out as seen by the server
?>[/PHP]
save it is. info.php
open up your web server and go to
http://www.localhost/info.php
if it works and you see info then your lucky and have correctly installed PHP if not, you have to install it.

Firefox: no, its not the end all solution, it has its own issues and in time it will be just as insecure as IE, when its hit Firefox 6, if it makes it that far. Oh, and AOL pays for it, incase you didn't know.
Microsoft & Windows: If you hate it so much, move to linux, or bsd, or anything else, stop complaning and move on.

there is nothing in the registry about PHP i believe, because it installs nothing, and is just a matter of moving files around. and thx zachery

IIRC Killer is right 
php is just an extention of a webserver
