    How page request works :

    1. Client from browser send HTTP request (with POST/GET variables).


    2. Apache recognizes that a PHP script is requested and sends the request
    to PHP module.
    3. PHP interpreter executes PHP script, collects script output and sends it
    back.
    4. Apache replies to client using the PHP script output as HTML output.
    First program

    ● Start xampp/wamp app


    ● Start server
    ● Open new file in any editor
    ● Write the program similar to the one in next slide
    ● Save your program with extension .php
    Basic Example

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>PHP!</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <p>
    <?php echo "Hello world!"; ?>
    </p>
    </body>
    </html>
    Or you can…

    <?php
    header("Content-Type: text/plain");
    echo "Hello World";
    ?>
    Some uses

    ● PHP can handle forms, i.e. gather data from files, save data to a file, thru
    email
    ● you can send data, return data to the user.
    ● You add, delete, modify elements within your database thru PHP.
    Variables

    ● No declaration required.
    ● A new variable is created & gets stored when we assign a value to it.
    ● eg $text = “Hello World”;
    ● The above statement will create a new variable and assign the string
    value ‘hello world’ to it, at the same time.
    ● echo ‘this is $text’;
    ● echo ‘this is’.$text.’only’;
    ● Both the above statements work the same.

    <input type=“text” name=“user”>
    </form>

    <?php
    echo $_GET[“user"];
    ?>
