Synopsis A PHP course designed to enable web developers and others with limited programming experience to build dynamic database driven e-commerce web sites using the PHP programming language. Since PHP is such a rich and task-specific language, the course covers the most important range of functions in depth, and equips delegates to understand the remaining less essential aspects. The contents of this PHP course are identical to our two month in-house "PHP for Progammers" course, but the pacing is adjusted to suit the needs of public delegates and non-programmers. At the instructor's discretion, training material modules may be omitted if the pace is slightly slower than anticipated. PHP is Open Source and Cross Platform, running on Unix, Linux, MS Windows, Apple Mac, AS/400 and more, and is often used with an OS-CP database and web server such as MySql and Apache. Thus PHP will work on the operating system and hardware that currently suits your applications and organization. PHP 5 is the current version of PHP and is what the course teaches. Differences with PHP 4 are explained for those who need to maintain legacy code. There is also a look forwards to the features expected in PHP 6. MySQL 5 is the primary database that is used, the course also covers My-SQL. Delegates should have few problems transferring their learned skills to interacting to other databased from PHP. Suitable For Web developers and web designers with a modest amount of programming experience.
