You have described PHP in a simple way so that anybody can understand it. Today itself i started to learn about PHP and after doing research in Google which site to start selected yours. Second thing more than windows i love linux very much. I use Fedora 9 and windows XP in my home and want to install in both. Second in office i am using Mandriva in office and i am a user and don't have the root password. Can i able to install being a user without having root password. Also how to do the same thing in Fedora 9 so that i can install at my home desktop.</p> Hello Martin,

I don’t use Windows and for GNU/Linux I always install PHP using Debian packages… So I cannot help you with the installation — please seek help somewhere else. The links above should give you plenty of information.

It seems to be that it is free.

I am using windows XP as my OS, can i start learning php on it, directly downlaoding WAMP on my computer?

Please clarify.

Regards,
Sourabh.

edit-description.php’s code is absolutely great for a begginer. I can understand the lack of time - it’s difficult to keep a life whilst working overtime to meet deadlines, writing your own personal programs/running a site - and most importantly actually having a life. Looks like you’re doing an awesome job - kudos :)

I've sort of shifted my focus over to different projects instead of writing guides for my site. Those projects are <a href="http://pel.sourceforge.net/" title="PHP EXIF Library" rel="nofollow">PEL</a> and <a href="/php-shell/" title="PHP Shell" rel="nofollow">PHP Shell</a> which feature real-life code. I guess the code there is somewhat complicated, but maybe you would like to look at the <a href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/*checkout*/pel/pel/examples/edit-description.php?rev=1.6" rel="nofollow">edit-description.php</a> file from PEL anyway since it is heavely commented. It uses functions, objects, and lots of builtin PHP functions.</p> Thanks for the comments, I’m very glad you like my little site.

The last few days I've installed and configured PHP, MySQL and Apache on Windows XP and created a webpage for a project I'm working on. Thanks to this easy to follow introduction, I'm able to hit the ground running with PHP without much of a delay between finishing the html/css for the site and jumping straight into the mysql/PHP work - other sites out there arent quite so clean and focused - taking it a while to read through different peoples articles which dont quite tie in with each other - so good work.</p> <p>I'd love to see a few more in depth articles on more complex stuff if you have the time. Maybe even some sample code for people to play with - giving the site an extra dimension and making it more interactive.</p> <p>I look forward to reading more of your articles - if you have have the time!</p> <p>Ben</p> Hey Martin,

I’d love to see a few more in depth articles on more complex stuff if you have the time. Maybe even some sample code for people to play with - giving the site an extra dimension and making it more interactive.

I look forward to reading more of your articles - if you have have the time!
