If you are familiar with the basics of programming and want to move to the next level, this class is for you! In this course we will explore the object-oriented side of PHP. You will design and use objects in your PHP applications. We will cover security, networking, PEAR, XML and Ajax. We will cover working with databases and techniques for developing web-based applications. Students will need access to a webserver that supports PHP and a database. | |
| 1 | Lesson 1: Developing Web Applications
In this lesson we are going to explore a variety of topics that can help make your work in PHP easier. We will look at working with multidimensional arrays, including how to sort by any value in the array. We will learn to create functions that use static variables and learn to pass values to the function by reference. We will also look at the printf and sprintf statements for customizing output of text and numbers.
We are also going to discuss a method of building PHP applications that can make them easier to build and maintain. This will provide a modular approach to building dynamic sites. You can still build lots of files that do one thing but the application will ensure that the correct files get loaded and executed. |
