I've had this dream to be a programmer but due to certain financial set backs I quit,? earlier on 2012 I had learnt html without much practice through an online tutorial, thinking I could move mount fuji with it but realized that html was just an appetite for things to come. I did my research and discovered lots of programming languages but had great interest for c++ but I've got me no pc for practice, so I decided to learn scripting for the mean time and hope for the best, I picked php as a first official language oz it could be practiced online and it seemed easy to me. Note: I know c++ basics though but quit coz I couldn't practice. now this is a diary page where i will be posting how I learn this language, I had to post it here so I could get advice from others. if you have nothing positive to offer just view and leave. |

Pls Ooo!!! Stop right there.. Html can move mountains Ooo, I thought like u for a while, but after doing research I realised my html knowledge was not complete cos incase u haven't heard there's html5 now, and it can create mobile apps, web games, and many more. |

^^ I needed a programming language not a mark up one, I know about html5 and the things it can do, I was just disappointed. I had learned it thinking I could code dynamically! with it. now I'm started learning php the html is starting to pay of. |

wow the basics of php is quite interesting and I must give it to Rasmus lerdof for unleashing such an interesting language. learning the introduction and was fun coz I could grasp everything. things like : php is a server side scripting language and is written with html to display the end result to the user. php scripts are executed on the server before displaying the page to the user, the user only sees the end result which consists of client mark up ie css javascript html ajax. I also learnt some things php enables us do :- it interacts with databases and is used to build dynamic web apps, allow users upload files, shopping carts, use cookies, encrypt data, restrict users, perform system functions ie from files from a system it can create, open, read, write and close them. a beginner php script. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <?php echo "php is easy!"; ?> </body> </html> that would just display the sentence "php is easy" that's it amigo! I would be moving in to syntax next but I have understand this introduction confidently. 1 Like |

I'm learning php, but its quite broad, mastering it would take some time, I've learnt it but I need to master it |

Why don't you learn CSS before any scripting language? PHP is nice but I will recommend javascript first if you already know CSS . Learn to deal with the client side(front end) before thinking of back end(server side). There are greater advantages if you learn javascript before PHP because after learning the procedural part of PHP you start thinking of OOP. It is my opinion though!!!! |

greenPHP: Why don't you learn CSS before any scripting language? PHP is nice but I will recommend javascript first if you already know CSS . Learn to deal with the client side(front end) before thinking of back end(server side). you have to learn html before css, some even teach the two together, after that, its php all the way, but if u want to make your website more interactive javascript is highly important but it slows down the website a little, that's why they created Javascript libraries like Jquery to make it simpler, You can create lots of things with Javascript but you need to make your website secure in the back end which is all that matters these days. I'm still a learner OOOooooo  |

What editor are you using? Do u have a local server installed on your system? |
| Re: My Php Diary by losprince(m): 10:14pm On Jan 09, 2014 |
rutchiekens:php editor is the name and there is this other one called php runner, the problem is I dont see any run code button or sort to run my code. by system do you mean a computer coz I do not have one, I downloaded these apps on my android. |
