Hey all,

I have been attempting to develop PHP on a windows laptop and then deploy to a production Linux server. The problem I'm running into is apparently PHP doesn't run well on windows dev environments... ?

For example:
- certain php functions are missing because apparently windows lacks strfmon capabilities

As a result, many things you would expect to run correctly, don't. For example, timthumb, various WordPress themes, well, just about any PHP code is really going to be unreliable.

Is there a way to make PHP run reliably as a Windows dev environment? I really can't just go uninstalling all my development software (PHP, Apache, mySQL) and then reinstalling a prebuilt package (xampp, wamp) because that's going to create a bunch of problems for me.

Is there a patch or something you can install on Windows to clear this up? What do you guys do? Does everyone do development on laptops running Linux, or what?

Thanks,
Brian
