I use php and mysql databases and am looking for some good resources dealing with security issues. I am hoping to start a business eventually with my brother and would like to learn about the basics of keeping your website secure. Thanks

Search for a learning tool called Webgoat.

I looked up the webgoat site but in order to run it you need to have a tomcat server setup on your machine. I am pretty new to web programing as all I know is php. Is there anyway to be able to install a tomcat server on my computer or any other website security learning tools.

The big downloads have everything you need including Java and Tomcat.

Environment variables are set either from the command line using SET or through the system management tools like right-click My Computer and pick Manage for W2K and XP. If there's a bat file that starts Tomcat then that's the easiest place to put it. Open a DOS window and type "help set".
