PHP

1. The PHP echo Statement

The echo statement can be used with or without parentheses: echo or echo().

Example (from w3 schools) :

<?php
echo "<h2>PHP is Fun!</h2>";
echo "Hello world!<br>";
echo "I'm about to learn PHP!<br>";
echo "This ", "string ", "was ", "made ", "with multiple parameters.";
?>



Step :
1. Open xampp control panel and start apache
2. Open dreamweaver
3. Paste the code from w3schools
4. Save file to local disk c - xampp - htdocs - dashboard
5. Put the filename as php1.php
6. Open the browser and open localhost 
7. Put the filename in the link : http://localhost/dashboard/php1.php
 
Output :




*If we stop the apache, the server will stop and page cannot be displayed. 

Open with folder

step :

1. Open file local disk c - xampp - htdocs - dashboard - php1.php
2. Right click on the file
3. Open with browser (ex : mozilla firefox)

Output :




View page source : 




2.PHP 5 Arrays

 

Loop Through an Indexed Array

Example :
<?php
$cars = array("Volvo", "BMW", "Toyota");
$arrlength = count($cars);

for($x = 0; $x < $arrlength; $x++) {
    echo $cars[$x];
    echo "<br>";
}
?>
Output : 
 Add coding on example :

<?php
$cars = array("Volvo", "BMW", "Toyota");
$arrlength = count($cars);

for($x = 0; $x < $arrlength; $x++) {
    echo $cars[$x];
    echo " x=.$x arrlength=.$arrlength";
    echo "<br>";
}
?>

Output :




  3. PHP FUNCTIONS

PHP Default Argument Value

 

Example : 

 

<?php
function setHeight($minheight = 50) {
    echo "The height is : $minheight <br>";
}

setHeight(350);
setHeight(); // will use the default value of 50setHeight(135);
setHeight(80);
?>
 
FILENAME : php3.php 
Output :
*setHeight();. No value is set, so it will use the default value that is 50.  
Default value statement : function setHeight($minheight = 50)
 

 

4. PHP 5 Form Handling

A Simple HTML Form

1. create html file 

<html>
<body>

<form action="welcome.php" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="name"><br>
E-mail: <input type="text" name="email"><br>
<input type="submit">
</form>

</body>
</html>
 
FILENAME : form.html
 
Output : 
 
 
 
 
 
2. create php file
 
<html>
<body>

Welcome <?php echo $_POST["name"]; ?><br>
Your email address is: <?php echo $_POST["email"]; ?>

</body>
</html>  

FILENAME : welcome_get.php
