How does Dreamweaver MX 2004, especially the student version, integrate with PHP and what additional plugins may be required for optimal functionality?

Dreamweaver MX 2004, especially the student version, can integrate with PHP by enabling the PHP server model in the program settings. Additionally, installing additional plugins like XAMPP or MAMP can provide a local server environment for testing PHP code within Dreamweaver. This allows students to develop and preview dynamic websites with PHP functionality directly in Dreamweaver.
