Basic Info

check your server has php enabled; add this to a file called phpinfo.php - "" - no question marks.



Compiled links from Rathamon, PigeonHead, SyS_Reactor, and prasanth - timdorr heavy moderating industries

do they have apps that do the code for you like frontpage but with php instead of html? I know im looking for shortcuts but it makes it easier to edit the code after a program has done the main stuff for you.

Nope, that would be nice, but its coded by hand, you can try to recycle cod though

Setting up a Windows PHP Server

http://www.warp2search.net/sniper/Sniper.html

Yes, the new dreamweaver (MX) lets you!

it only has snipets of code though. the best way is to recycle code like the other guy said.

great IDE for php:

www.phpedit.com



features:

• Syntax highlighting
  
• integrated debugger
  
• code explorer
  
• shows you the syntax of the command (dunno what it's called )
  
• many more things i forgot to mention

Add www.1phpstreet.com for code category .

you mean quotation marks?

coz without question marks this wouldn't work

i'm ready to jump into PHP, thanks for all those links, they'll be sure to give me a head start

Found this link for setting php nuke 5.6 and 6.0 on windows 2000 server

PHP For Window Servers

http://php.resourceindex.com/

lots of php code

All of those sites are great, but I ALWAYS use php.net the most. It has an awesome function lookup, and it really helps you out. I believe www.phpbuilder.com has the same options, but I like php.net better. Anyway, good luck coders! Check your P's and Q's, oh and make sure you always use the proper syntax. (Word of advice: read the manual first at php.net. )

Dreamweaver MX adds alot of extra bulk with javascripting, you are better off hand coding

Any good books?

might be a bit basic, but good to learn the...basics and i like the VQS series (i have 4 )

Hi everybody.... i need help from you guys... im setting up an IMAP, Horde, on IIS6, win2003 server, the thing is i need some packages for PHP, some kind of extension called PEAR, does anyone know exactly what this is for?? Im a step away from secceding... hope anyone knows...

For one thing, you should have created a new post for your question. For another, Google holds all the answers - http://pear.php.net .

Thnx man, i checked it already, but its not very clear.... anyways, i'll have the new post created right know...

http://www.pixel2life.com

A useful tutorial index site, easy to use and was useful to me.

An IDE which I really like to use is Html kit Chami.com

I love PHP Designer 2005. Great IDE. AND its free.

I tried Zend Studio a few months back, pretty good for php developing.

http://www.rileysresource.net
submit your articles people!

yer i second that mps is pretty niffty

www.zend.com have some very good php tutorials especially for total beginners.

For people that want to set up a windows server to start web development, I recomend TSW The Saint Wamp. Its an all in one server that has apache, mysql, php5, perl, asp, python, php myadmin and more stuff all preconfigured. It works really well. Get it from sourceforge: sourceforge.net/projects/yawamp/

Are there any other all in one packages that allow you to install apache, php and mysql in one?

Yes, I know if two more: Xampp and EasyPHP. Google them. Apparently they have out of dte stuff in them though. EasyPHP has php 4 for example. TSW is by far the best. It has stuff like phpmyAdmin built in which is apparently hard to install on its own. You need phpmyAdmin really for mySQL unless your comfortable either building your own or jus passing sql commands.

Using Php Desginer 2005 right now and it's perfect for my needs

May i add The Uniform Server (a.k.a. Miniserver) If you are looking for a WAMP Package with Apache 2, PHP 4/5, MySQL, phpMyAdmin, phpBackupPro, Perl, ... Python, Tomcat, Resin....

http://www.uniformserver.com

It is also small and under 4MB Download size. It is easy to use and mobile. Can be burnt to a CD and also carried in a USB Stick....

It also has more features under development but those are just the basics..

It is also secure, 2ce more than XAMPP or any other WAMP Package ever....

try it out!...

PS: Of couse this is coming from me and i am a developer so u will just have to test it out to see for yourself if i am right or wrong... our forums are craling of people switching from XAMPP and other WAMP Packages.... thats my 2cents...

Gel - The best Java IDE
WAMP5 - The best PHP server
Crimson Editor - The best PHP IDE

For a good built in validation tool for Mozilla Firefox users, I recommend this extension which updates the Source window with validation help and checkers and displays a counter of errors and warnings. It can also scan for diffrent levels of Accessibility. I've also found it to be a little more strict than the W3C's but it works very well.

I'm trying it right now, thanks for the link

Fellow PHP coders!

From experience what is the best resource/tutorial for a crash course in PHP to enable me to be familiar with coding in PHP?

PHPFreaks.com seems to be good.

Wow, thank god that I found this thread... I am just about to embark on a final year programming project. Intend to develop a call center mgmt system.

php is supposed to process and spit out html, but im thinking if i can use php with javascript... is that possible? like, just for content in alert boxes generated by php...
