The Google App Engine does not support php natively, even though it remains at the top of the wish list on the GAE issue tracker.

However, you should be able to run php scripts using a Java implementation of PHP, such as Quercus. You may want to check out the following article for further reading on the topic:

You can just about using Quercus but it's not a full implementation last time I checked. It basically compiles your PHP down to Java and runs that through the Java Runtime.

My opinion: it's a hack. You'll probably find thing breaking and you'll probably have a really lousy experience with it.

But it might work for you so feel free to try it out.
