Can someone please tell me how to use PHP??

Uranium-235 · #2 07-26-2005, 03:59 PM

can you be more specific?

The syntax is like the following:

Code:

<?php

command;

?>

It should be embedded in an html file that will be processed server-side, so as part of the file it should look like this:

Code:

<html>
   <body>
      <?php
          command;
          command;
          command;
      ?>
   </body>
</html>

Operators, conditional statements, and loops can be written as they are in Java or C++.

with the exception of the $ character infront of the varible

oh and you don't have to pre-declare varibles

oh and about a few hundred thousand other things

You can download forums, like PHPbb

http://www.phpbb.com

of course, you would have to install it too, just follow the instructions that come with the forum (usually install.txt or readme.txt)

Damn, dude, ease up a bit. I didn't mention variables at all, only syntax (since anything else the server would tell you what you're doing wrong), and so yeah, you can do exactly as I said.

Ooops, I just realized... I should have left the thread alone with your post there, since I forgot that we aren't supposed to provide any help on these forums any more...

"Operators, conditional statements, and loops can be written as they are in Java or C++."

you can't write those without varibles!
