PHP is a server-side scripting language which is used to create dynamic web sites that interact with databases. Distinct from the client-side scripting language JavaScript, PHP runs directly on the web server, enabling highly customized responses to users` requests or queries into databases. This 42 hour non-credit course for web designers provides learners with hands-on experience writing PHP scripts, focusing on language syntax and the use of functions, arrays, and strings. Learners embed PHP code into web pages, create PHP-based web forms, configure MySQL, and learn how to use PHP with MySQL. It is strongly recommended that students complete CXCP663 AND CXCP673 or have equivalent HTML/CSS and JavaScript experience prior to taking this course. Familiarity with relational databases is recommended.
