<acronym>PHP</acronym>, which stands for "PHP: Hypertext
|
|
Preprocessor", is an open-source HTML-embedded scripting
|
|
language. Much of its syntax is borrowed from C, Java and
|
|
Perl with some unique features thrown in. The main goal of
|
|
the language is to allow web developers to write dynamically
|
|
generated pages quickly. You can do many more with PHP. Read
|
|
on, and see.
