Portability of PHP from windows to Linux

Hello,

I am new to the open source environment. We have to develop a web
application using Apache/PHP/MySQL on Windows (A component that we want
to use is available only on Windows for now). Later when the component
is available on Linux, we would like to move the code.

The web application is a simple one - collects data, does some simple
validations and stores in the database.

I would like to know how portable the code will be. Do we need to
rewrite a lot of code when we move from Windows to Linux? What are the
issues I need to be aware of?

Thanks for your help,
seth
