Jump to PostOf course. Apache is full compatible with PHP. Install them in this order : Apache, PHP (do the settings), MySQL.
Later on, you may have problems while combining Apache and PHP. If so, have a look at the documentation supported with PHP.
Good luck!

I recommend XAMPP if you're a beginner.
It will install Apache Server, PERL, MYSQL, PHP, PHPAdmin and other software to aid you in development.
I would also recommend installing APACHE and MYSQL as a Service.
XAMPP will ask you about this during installation.
Check to see if it's right for you.
You can get it at : http://www.apachefriends.org/ :rolleyes:

Apache is native server for PHP. So it's better to use Apache insead of any other server. Also native platform for Apache and PHP is *nix...
