Scripting languages - php

[nick]

Hi, I'm into doing dynamic web content with php - which is really ace. Anyone else into scripting and/or php?

i can do simple Html and a little bit more , i have touched on VBasic before but never php. how easy is it?

[nick]

its quite easy, much easier than vb. most isps provide support for it. its easy to build table driven pages, for example if you had a site for a sports team you could include a fixture list in a page where the actual list wasn't in the html, it might either be in a mysql database (again most isps support this) or in a file, but either way you can change the fixture list without needing to change the html pape.

see http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp

if you know c, c++, java, perl, or other language, php will be easy. try this for starters:

<?php
echo "hello php!"
?>

that is really basic.
see tizag.com's php tutorial (http://tizag.com/phpT/) for more
hope this helps!

Muh, I learned HTML, style sheet, Jscript. Never touched PHP either. I thought it is hard and time consuming.

Perhaps I will give it a try, once again.

I'm taking web design next year, so i'll learn all about it :D :D
I love computers and stuff, and am starting to learn HTML and stuff. I'm into basic web design, but i really want to get more in-depth.
