yes, in order to run php (see
www.php.net for more info) you'll need to have ether a host that has support for php, or setup your own web server using apache, a free (read: free as in beer) webpage serving software (see
www.apache.org for more info). Mysql or Postgresql are both database softwares that php has API's for. Using the combo of php and a db software like mysql or postgresql you can create a dynamic webpage (meaning your content on the site can be generated by you or the users). with just plan jane html, you won't get this functionality.
