Default Which version ?

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me which version of PHP 5.2.5 I should download please ?
There are so many that I'm totally confused.
Should I go for the tar.gz, tar.bz2 [Complete source code] or zip package, installer [Windows binaries]
[I run XP on a laptop if that's any help]
Thanks,
Jon

Hello.

I hope you are having a good time on the forums

Official documentation on the PHP website uses the tar.gz file, hope this helps

Jon, if you want to install PHP on your laptop, which has Microsoft Windows XP on it, then you have to go for the Windows Binaries. The tar.gz, tar.bz2 & other stuff are for the Linux OS. Please let me know if you need any further info on installing PHP on your laptop...
