Yast -> Software -> Install and Remove Software -> Filter on Package
groups or search for the programs you would like to install, like PHP,
Apache and MySQL and what not. If you forget certain things, SUSE will
see that they are installed. If you make wrong choices, it will also do
that and when you update, it will install security patches.

Then read the SUSE manuals on how to change the installed things. Also
look up the documentation that comes with the programs and read them.

Perhaps not the advise you hoped for. The reason I give you this advise
is because you want to have an operational server AND you are a newbie.

To have the webserver with php running is almost no time. MySQL took me
about 30 minutes to understand. Here is my experience:
