PHP is the most popular server-side language used to build dynamic websites. The stateless web (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) can only do so much without a dynamic language such as PHP to add the ability to interact with the webserver. In this, I have learned how to make your pages dynamic based upon user interaction, interacting with HTML forms, and store and retrieve information from local data sources which include a database.
Below is the topic which I learn:
- Understand how server-side programming works on the web.
- PHP Basic syntax for variable types and calculations.
- Creating conditional structures
- Storing data in arrays
- Using PHP built-in functions and creating custom functions
- Understanding POST and GET in form submission.
- How to receive and process form submission data.
- Reading and writing cookies.
- Security tips (i.e. SQL Injection)
- Create a database in phpMyAdmin.
- Read and process data in a MySQL database.
