iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 9, 2004 PHP Is a totaly different program language than HTML. No, Frontpage is not for editing php. In php-files you can use HTML. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 9, 2004 u can edit php files in Macromedia Dreamweaver Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 11, 2004 You can edit PHP scripts using Dreamweaver, notepad, textpad, word pad, etc.When you create a PHP page, the user runs the script. The CPU of the server processes the PHP in the script and based on what it says and different variables it outputs HTML to the user. That's why if you right click and select view source on a php page....u will see html code. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 11, 2004 yes, you make a .php document and program it with html. The php scripts will go between <?php and ?php> tags Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 11, 2004 you can code PHP (which is an aconym for pretty home pages) in any text editor that saves files as straight text. I recommend ConTEXT which is absolutely free and very well featured. and yes, you can use php in html, as long as the server supports php Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 18, 2004 PHP is used to produce HTML, which it then sends to the user.  An example:  <?php  echo "Thou art a wench!";  ?>  That script would send this to your browser:  Thou art a wench!  You can stop a PHP file and insert direct HTML, too, which will be written as if echoed.

iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 30, 2004 actually it is for Personal/Professional Home Page toolsNo...It's really Hypertext Preprocessor, which maakes sense considering PHP generates the page before you see it, and HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. I guess some programmers like the word 'hypertext.' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iGuest 3 Report post Posted December 30, 2004 php is a server-side programming language. Its especially useful when creating online biz websites. It controls dynamically what your web is to do with certain info. JSP n CGI r also server-side programming languages too. HTML is more for displaying txt and images.
