Table of Contents • PHP • JavaScript • XAMPP
PHP • The language that you use to make the server generate dynamic output. • PHP documents end with the extension .php. • A Web server passes a PHP program to the PHP processor. • A new tag to trigger the PHP commands: • <?php … ?> <?php echo “Hello World”; ?>
The Structure of PHP • Looks more like Java, but flexible language • Semicolons: PHP commands ends with a semicolon • $ symbol: placed in front of all variables <?php $mycounter = 1; $mystring = “Hello”; $myarray = array(“One”, “Two”, “Three”); ?>
PHP Variables (1) • String variables <?php $username = “Tom Sawyer”; echo $username; ?> • Numeric variables <?php $count = 17; echo $count; ?>
PHP Variables (2) • Array variables <?php $team= array(“Bill”, “Joe”, “Mike”, “Chris”, “Jim”); echo $team[3]; ?>
PHP Operators • Arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, %, ++, -- • Assignment operators: =, +=, -=, *=, /=, .=, %= • Comparison operators: ==, !=, >, <, >=, <= • Logical operators: &&, and, ||, or, !, xor
PHP Variable operations • Assignment $x = 10; $+=10; $y =20; $y -=10; • Variable incrementing and decrementing ++$x; --$y;
PHP String • String concatenation echo “You have ”.$msgs.“ messages.”; $bulletin .= $newsflash; • Variable substitution echo “There have been $count presidents of the US.”; • Escaping characters $text = “My mother always said \”Eat your greens\”.”;
Multiline String Variable • Multiple lines between quotes • <<< operator <?php $author = “Alfred E Newman”; $out = <<<_END This is a Headline This is the first line. This is the second. - Written by $author. _End; ?>
PHP Variable Typing • PHP is a very loosely typed language. • No need to declare variables before they are used. • Context-based variable typing by PHP if necessary. <?php $number = 12345 * 67890; echo substr($number, 3, 1); ?> <?php $pi = “3.1415927”; $radius = 5; echo $pi * ($radius * $radius); ?>
PHP Constants • Similar to variables, but its value is set for the remainder of the program and cannot be altered. define(“ROOT_LOCATION”, “/usr/local/www/”); $directory = ROOT_LOCATION; • Predefined constants __LINE__, __FILE__, __DIR__, __FUNCTION__, __CLASS__, __METHOD__, __NAMESPACE__
PHP Function • To separate out sections of code that perform a particular task. <?php $temp = “The date is “; echo $temp.longdate(time()); function longdate($timestamp) { return date(“ 1 F jS Y”, $timestamp); } ?>
JavaScript • Client-side scripting language that runs entirely inside the web browser • Placed between opening <script> and closing </script> HTML tags <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <h1>My First Web Page</h1> <script> document.write(“<p>My First JavaScript</p>”); </script> </body> </html>
JavaScript Function <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <script> function myFunction() { alert("Hello World!"); } </script> </head> <body> <button onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button> </body> </html>
JavaScript Variables • String variables greeting = “hello there” newstring = greeting document.writing(newstring) • Numeric Variables count = 42 temperature = 100.0 • Arrays toys = [“bat”, “ball”, “whistle”, “puzzle”, “doll”] document.write(toys[3]);
JavaScript Operators • Arithmetic operators: +, -, *, /, %, ++, -- • Assignment operators: =, +=(string too), -=, *=, /=, %= • Comparison operators: ==, !=, >, <, >=, <=, ===, !== • Logical operators: &&, ||, ! • Incrementing and Decrementing operators: ++, -- • String concatenation: + • Escaping Characters: \b, \n, \t, \’, \”, \\, etc.
JavaScript Typing • Like PHP, JavaScript is a very loosely typed language • Determined only when a value is assigned and can change as the variable appears in different contexts
Installing XAMPP • Free and open source cross-platform Web server solution stack pagkage consisting of: • The Apache HTTP Server • MySQL database • Interpreters for scripts written in the PHP and Perl programming language • X(cross-platform), Apache HTTP Server, MySQL, PHP, Perl • Intended it for use only as a development tool • Allow website designers and programmers to test their work on their own computers without any access to the Internet. • In practice, however, XAMPP is sometimes used to actually serve web pages on the World Wide Web. • Support for creating and manipulating database in MySQL and SQLite • Download at: http://www.apachefriends.org/en/index.html http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XAMPP
