Introduction to PHP Programming
This PHP Programming course is designed to give
delegates the knowledge to write, maintain and understand PHP scripts.
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 organisation.

INTENSITY: About 40% of the course is
practicals, and 60% lectures.
RESOURCE: Each student will have
exclusive use of a PC for the duration of the course. Each student will
be provided with a full set of training notes relating to the course.
PREREQUISITES: Web developers and web
designers with a modest amount of programming experience. Students will
typically have used another simple or domain-specific language such as
VBscript or Javascript. Basic knowledge of HTML and HTTP is a
requirement; some knowledge of CSS, SGML and XML would be a definite
advantage. Please call if you require any advice.
FOLLOW UPS:
Students would also benefit from our Two-day Apache Workshop course
which gives essential instruction in the administration of the popular
web server.

rest!
PRACTICALS / TAKEAWAYS: Each student
leaves the course with his own set of training notes for the material
