An Introduction to PHP
Filed under: Essays | Tags: Interesting Links | March 31st, 2004
An article I wrote for Digital Web is online, PHP for Designers. I am happy with how it turned out, and if there’s anything good about it I owe it to Molly, Nick, Paul, and Keith. I hope for this to be the first of several articles on PHP, but to continue I need to streamline my writing process. I don’t like writing, I like having written. Trim, cut, edit.

Very nice article, concise and eloquent. I’ll send it to my designer friend who just asked me “What’s up with PHP?”

Do you like PHP? It’s free and ubiquitous, but is it really the best language for the job? If every single language was free and available on all hosts, would you still choose to use PHP? If not, what would you use?

Thanks for an excellent article! I think it will make a great introduction for the student designers that I occassionally interact with in my work.

Very nice! Though as far as languages go, PHP is Greek to me….

Excellent! I just had a request to implement PHP and didn’t know where to start. Your article was very informative.

Once you start using PHP you’ll never go back to static pages again. Nice article.
