    What id ZEND?

    What is ZEND. Why it has anything to do with programming PHP?

    ZEND is the company formed by the authors of PHP. Look at
    http://www.zend.com/company/overview.php for an overview.

      is zend to php the same as activestate to perl or mod_perl to perl.

      of php?

        Zend is a company.

        They develop the Zend engine which forms the base of PHP. You do not
        need to install this separately as it is part of PHP.

        They also develop a whole bunch of other stuff, including an IDE, an
        encoder, an optimizer etc. You do not need any of these to develop or
        run PHP.
