This is a stripped down version of these pages for older browsers. These pages are really meant to be viewed in a standards compliant browser.

PHP Basics

These tutorials are about PHP and its use for server-side Web programming.

This tutorial has five (5) sub-sections.

PHP

PHP assumes a very basic knowledge of the HTTP protocol. so if you haven't looked at the HTTP overview yet, you probably should. It is just one link up.

This section looks at the basics of the PHP scripting language. It covers:

  • how to embed PHP in HTML (and other HTTP) documents
  • the basic syntax of the language
  • how variables work in PHP
  • the data types of PHP

Just enough to get you up and running so you have something to play with.

These tutorials do assume you know the basics of Web-based markup languages, so if that phrase means nothing, you are starting in the wrong place and should go look at my XHTML notes.
