PHP (PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) is an Open Source server-side scripting language for creating dynamic Web pages for e-commerce and other Web applications. A dynamic Web page is a page that interacts with the user, so that each user visiting the page sees customized information. Dynamic Web applications are prevalent in e-commerce sites, where the content displayed is generated from information accessed in a database or other external source.

Unlike other scripting languages for Web development, PHP offers excellent connectivity to most of the common databases (including Oracle, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Sybase, ODBC and many others). It also offers integration with various external libraries, which allow the developer to do anything from generating PDF documents to parsing XML. Perhaps the greatest advantage of PHP, when compared to other scripting languages such as ASP or Cold Fusion, is that it is Open Source and cross-platform, suitable for today's heterogeneous network environments.

PHP has been awarded the Programming Language of 2004, according to the TIOBE Programming Community Index. This index uses information collected from the popular search engines, and are based on the world-wide availability of skilled engineers, courses, and third party vendors.

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Extreme PHP is designed to enable Web developers and others with limited programming experience to build dynamic e-commerce websites.

"The Extreme PHP course is very practical and aimed at getting students up to speed in making real-world sites (for example, Dollie - with no PHP experience - able to make congress.gov.ph), so I think it's very worth it for our students."
