I google about these nd found that XAMPP is a free and open
source cross-platform web
server package, consisting
mainly of the Apache HTTP
Server, MySQL database, and
intrprtrs,
but i have already installed apache 4.1 (basically i do practice in jsp that runs fine)so if i download XAMP then will i abel to do programing in jsp also,
plz clear my doubt sir

Easiest way to go about this on Windows is to download a WAMPP Server.

Both Xamp and Wamp are server packages that can be used for developing. Basically what it does is install Apache, MySQL and PHP so you can work in that environment. I would suggest that you google xampp and go to the apache friends website and learn about it but this is mostly likely the smart way to go about your request.
