Yea, I know its different in a lot of ways but PHP should &quot;theoretically&quot; run the same on the two systems if I have both apache and php configured the same. &nbsp;Thanks!

I haven't been able to locate any documentation on compiling php5 for windows xp. &nbsp;I know how to install it, etc..., but I would like to be able to configure &amp;&nbsp;compile it like you can in Linux. &nbsp;Can anyone point me to documentation on this?<br />
<br />
The reason is that I am creating a test environment on a windows machine and I'm trying to simulate the linux environment on the live server as best as I can. &nbsp;The way I'd like to do this is just to copy all the &quot;./configure --with-gd&quot; stuff from the live server's configuration and mirror that configuration on my xp/php5 setup.
