AbelCam supports the use of PHP.

To use PHP within AbelCam, install the PHP 5.3.3 zip package from www.php.net
download php-5.3.3-nts-Win32-VC9-x86.zip
5.3.3 is the current release - later versions are expected to work as well.

Install PHP

extract zip file to c:\php
AbelCam expects to find PHP in c:\php

copy c:\Program Files\AbelCam\wwwroot\php\c-php-php.ini as template for c:\php\php.ini
Changes to the default php.ini are marked with ;ABELCAM

Start AbelCam, the PHP Logo will be shown on the Web page
