I know you can run php on windows server but is it safer to run php on Linux machine vs a windows machine?
Can someone list me the pros and cons of each?

As far as the security of PHP goes, I do not think it matters what operating system it is installed on. It will be just as secure on any operating system. The real question should be, which operating system is more secure? If there is a vulnerability with the operating system, PHP could be used to exploit it - but that doesn't imply PHP is insecure.

I agree with John. Rather than PHP being the security risk I would look at the OS and, perhaps, how secure the developer codes in PHP.
