What is PHP? PHP is a web programming language used to write dynamic webpages. In this tutorial you will learn basics of PHP. I will assume you already know a bit about programming language so I won't cover the whole thing.
This PHP Tutorial will explain the followings :
First, make sure you already have PHP installed on your computer. If you don't have it installed visit the first part of this tutorial, Install Apache PHP and MySQL. By the way this tutorial only covers PHP 4 not the old PHP 3 ( I wonder if anyone still use it ? ).
By the way, if you don't already use a suitable editor for coding check out this page. If you already have your favorite editor just skip it and move on to the next part : Opening and ending PHP tags
