Previewing? You can just install a server on your own box: http://www.apache.org/ for example
an easier way of setting up a server to test your own work on would be to get phptriad - it comes with apache/php/mySQL all bundled together - you might need to update the php to most recent version but thats not hard to do

As el-half and val have mentioned, you could install a server on your computer. You'd have to have the PHP interpreter installed with a web browser in order to preview any PHP scripts (or just the PHP interpreter if you're running from the command line). I don't know of any GUI tools that will open a PHP script and preview the results without the script residing on a server, whether it be a local or remote location.
To imrpove slightly on what valhallen said phpdev would be the way to go. It is more up to date. http://www.firepages.com.au/devindex.htm theres the link for it.
I personally run iis, php 4, and mysql on my windows xp dev box. Works fine for me and testing my php scripts.
yeah x, you mean like that page you keep trying to get to work right that we keep seeing in IRC :D
haha, just kidding.
I actually got it to work finally. I think those bastards at my hosting company throttled my cpu usage. LMAO
They can't handle the power of my graphic php scripts :D
