Basic PHP Tutorial

.........................................................

¶

Heres a very basic php tutorial.

To start out we’ll just echo something.

<?php

echo “Hia world!!”;

?>

That’ll just show up as “Hia world!!”

Notice all php starts with <?php and ends with ?>

Also its similar to javascript. Text and other stuff goes in quotes and most lines end with a semicolon.

Heres something more advance. This’ll send an email.

<?php
$to = “test@me.com”;
$subject = “Hi”;
$message = “amg dewd, i sent the message from liek php!!!!!!!!!!”;
mail($to, $subject, $message);
echo “Sent a message”;
?>

Notice: You must have some type of mail server installed. Most macs will, most webhosting servers will. I have no clue about winblows

Now lets get into functions. We’ll make a simple function that’ll echo a message and add a line break.

<?php
function myEcho($message)
{
echo $message;
echo “\n”;
}
myEcho(“Hi dewd”);
?>

This is helpful if your writing some php application and you need it to add line breaks without adding another echo “\n”; every time

Thats the end of it for today. This goes through a lot and a little. May help if this isn’t your first php tutorial
