so..what exsactally is different between PHP and HTML? I mean..you use the same code and stuff, whats the difference?

well, there's a lot of difference between PHP & HTML.

HTML is a markup language, means that you use HTML to present your data on your pages. But to add any functionality like email, or customer login, etc, you need a language to program it.

PHP stands for Hypertext Preprocessor. Its a language that runs on the server, providing you the features like sending & receiving e-mails, database & file handling etc.

But that doesn't rule out the implementation of HTML in PHP. Like I said, HTML is just a markup language to present your data. But to add logic to your website, you need a server side language like ASP or ASP.NET or PHP or JSP or Java Servlets or ColdFusion or CGI-Perl or Python or iHTML, etc.

HTML in it self is static. meaning that what ever you put in there stays in there till u actualy change the content of that page manualy. like u d/l page edit it up it up. but HTML is the base of all the web pages. regadless of the server side language u use, asp,.net,php,cfm,jsp the final out put is HTML

so wat the hel is PHP (or any othe server side language)

these languages provide dynamic content. such that you can update you content automatical, like you have a list of members and if some one signs up the new member gets add to the list automaticaly, u dont d/l the page, add the members to the list and upload it.. basicly with these languaes you can automate the funcionality of you web site..

hope this helps

Wonder what happened to those guys.

danielmichel · 02-23-2006, 04:54 AM

I just started learning PHP today!
This language is very exciting so far.
I cant wait to write my first registration script.

do you know a good php tutorial site? I tried W3 schools and it really offers things that you could do in javascript, or things i don't need. Like where is the thing for storing registrations and such. Also a thing that 'emails an email address the input on a form' code would be good.

danielmichel · 04-14-2006, 07:26 PM

Well you can always check out the PHP tutorials we have available on the forums. You can find them easier by doing a thread prefix search for php. Sometimes an author might write a combination php and other language so u might want to do a search for the prefix “other” as well. You can also find a thread on the forums that has some good ones too @ http://www.infitechdesign.com/forums...light=tutorial

http://www.php.net/tut.php
http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp

Are also great php resources.

Isn’t that the site they refer you to when you have a problem with PHP like in the PHP manual? That’s the official site for the PHP language right?
