I'm doing a technical review for some chapters on the Dojo Toolkit for an upcoming Wrox Press book on Javascript Frameworks. I suppose not surprisingly, the sample code for the server side code is php.

So, in order to be a good reviewer, I'm jumping into the PHP pool. I have to say that in reading the sample code, it's a lot "closer to the metal" then ASP.NET, so this should be interesting to say the least.

So - should you want to embark on a similar journey, here's the best info I could find on installing php as an ISAPI extension.

If you are running Vista SP1 or Server 2008, you can install FastCGI support and run PHP that way. The basic steps are outlined here.

Looks like things are up and running - php here I come!
