Hello Keithotzkie.

You will need a web server for testing you php and html codes.

For the web server, I suggest you download and install XAMPP (https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html).  XAMPP will give you a preconfigured Apache web server with php modules enabled.  It will also have MySQL running.  Everything will be set up for you after installation.

For coding php and html, a simple text editor will do.  You could try Notepad++ (https://notepad-plus-plus.org/) with its syntax highlighting enabled to help you in coding.  If you prefer a WYSIWYG IDE, try WordPress (https://wordpress.com).

By the way, all the software suggested above are free to download and use.

Good luck!
