Why PHP?

PHP is a programming language for developing dynamic web-pages. PHP is free, and open-source. The PHP is does not require one spesific operation system (Windows, Linux, Solaris etc), but it will need a web-server to run. Starting with PHP is easy, and the support against other web standards and many different tecnologies. This makes PHP a good and natural choice for the beginner, and for the professional.

Why this page?

The main purpose of this teaching page is to give you an introduction to the language PHP, and to let the ones wanting to learn more an opportunity to develod their skills. Thats why it's important that everyone who reads this page, help me get up more torturials, and ask questions. If I get questions, I will reply as soon as i can, and may be even post a torturial on this page later on.

What can you learn?

If you are new to the programming world, I would recommend that you start my learning HTML first, and then comtinue to this PHP section of the page. You will have to know some HTML before you can make any web page.

If you know HTML, but have never used PHP, it could be a good idea to read all on this page about PHP programming. You will then know what you need to know, to make a dynamic web.page. After reading a few pages, you will be able to make simple functions to make your web-page better.

If you already know ASP.NET, but not PHP, you need to pay attention to the differences between ASP.NET and PHP. You need to think very different in the way you make your page. The main thing you need to know is that PHP seperates the server and client on a more clear level.

If you already know allot of PHP, and just want to know even more. Feel free to read ahead. I would appreciate if you sent me an e-mail if there is anything on this page that are not correct, or if there is anything you want me to add.

Thank you, and have fun developing
