PHP Syntax

 PHP is a scripting level language that is very powerful. It is enbedded within HTML tags . PHP always starts with a block, like so.

<?php

?>
To show text you either use the ( echo ) tag or the ( print ) tag. Like  so:

<html>
<body>

<?php
echo " my page"
?>
</body>
</html>

Comments will look like this.

//comment here
A comment block will look like this:

/* this
is a
blocked comment*/

 

That is the simple PHP syntax. Thank you for reading and there will be more to come.

Installing XAMPP - PHP & MySQL

My computer is a Windows XP PRO running SP2 and the goal is to get PHP & MYSQL installed and running so I cna learn to write websites in PHP.

The first Problem I ran into is that I run a Windows machine. I wanted to install PHP, MYSQL, PHPADMIN & Apache as my webserver. I found this was all available for my windows machine with XAMPP, I went to The download site located HERE, I downloaded and choose the RUN option.

During Install I was asked wether or not to install this as a service, I decided not to as I did not want all these starting when I boot up my computer. Instead  I would rather turn on and off the services as I needed them.

After install I opened a browser and typed Localhost and the XAMPP splash page appeared. I selected my Language of choice (English) and then Selected Security to see what was secure & Unsecure.
