Learning Topic

PHP Application PHP is a commonly used general-purpose, open-source scripting language. A versatile

tool, it is simple enough for a beginner to use, but also offers more advanced features. It

can be embedded into HTML and is often used as a web development tool.

PHP pages contain HTML with embedded code that does "something." In the example

below, the “something” is the output text, "This is an example PHP script." Note that start

and end processing instructions surround the PHP code. This allows the user to move

quickly in and out of "PHP mode."
