Computer Tips and Tricks | WordPress Technology Hints

If you’re an newbie in web development and if you want to “enter” on the ground, then PHP programming is the best language to learn. There are several ways to learn to become a web developer, but, I think this approach is more logical.

First, as a web developer we need to learn HTML. It is easy to learn through websites which will make you to learn from the basics. My clear advice is to work first on notepad before you enter into the coding environment such as Dreamweaver. Encryption in notepad will make you to learn languages which are for essential level. It is known that anyone can make use of WYSIWYG application.

Second, it is essential for all web developers to configure the development environment. Most of PHP development is now done with the conjunction of Web Servers like Apache and the MySQL database. To make the work more easy, there are some good programming books titled “Beginning the PHP5, Learning Apache, and the MySQL Database Tutorial”, which is very easy to use. To be honest, the configuration of the development environment will be more difficult to prepare.

Like every programming, there is “Big Trick” in it. Using a free program called XAMPP which includes PHP, Apache, MySQL and all server details which you can install only once and can actually find one on your own machine. In my own opinion, this will make the configuration of the development easier. An application that includes phpMyAdmin, will provides an interface to manage and create your MySQL access database. If the situation is like you don’t know nothing about database creation then I can refer to PHP5 our books, chapters 3 and chapter 4, which will teach you all the essential steps in understanding the syntax and structure of the table.

Once the actual environment is installed with the Apache server, MySQL and PHP running in your laptop or system, then you are ready to learn the PHP Language and ready for becoming a true web developer in London. I found the tutorial on the W3Schools website very useful. There are many other book which will include Beginning With PHP5 providing some useful introductory chapters for Learning PHP pages with MySQL using PHP. PHP is a very powerful tool if the role of language associated with the power of a database to store data from a website. If you visit Monster.com and Dice.com, or any other Web site of employment development you can note the PHP popularity. The language has been selected now and the source are flexible, open. It has a large community of users around the world who have pledged and dedicated. If you do not know what is open source, then you must Google. This is a wonderful concept, which has benefited many.
