By the time 1997 arrived the Apache web server had come to dominate the market. If you were hosting a web site, the chances were that you were using Apache to do it.
 
 
By this point PHP has evolved into a scripting langauge that is embedded into HTML pages. When a web page is requested, a pre-processor module interprets the PHP commands embedded in the HTML, performs any necessary tasks and feeds the results to the requesting browser in form that the browser understands. With the introduction of version 2.0 PHP adoption begins to grow.
