PHP - Case Study

Case Study - PHP module H202

This is a real live application Ð two scripts that run in succession to allow your site visitor to provide a review. On the first page, he's offered a form to complete, pre-filled with details in a URL that you've emailed him. On the second page, his response is emailed to you and he's thanked for his input. Although the code is very short and simple, this example introduces programmers from a non-web background to some important concepts used in glue-ing PHP to HTML, the browser, the server, and the email system.

It's surprisingly cost effective to come on our public courses - even if you live in a different country or continent to us.

We have a technical library of over 600 books on the subjects on which we teach. These books are available for reference at our training centre. Also available is the Opentalk Forum for discussion of technical questions.
