This may be a very silly question, but I can't figure out how to use the phpPGAdmin. I've downloaded and unzipped the .zip file from the website, but how do I install it? I'm using a Mac.

I'm starting a lift project on a remote server and would like to have phpPgadmin installed on my Mac so that i can connect to the postgresql db on the remote host through phpPgAdmin's GUI.

I'm very new to databases and this is all very confusing.

Thanks.
