Beschreibung

If you know HTML and/or CSS and want to take your skills to the next level, or even if you are a complete web novice, you really need to learn PHP. Not only is it available free either pre-installed or ready-to-install on almost all web servers, it's also extremely fast and flexible too. Long gone are the days when you had to compile unwieldy C programs in order to add dynamic functionality to websites, because PHP provides everything you need with simple commands you embed in your web pages (in much the same way you do with JavaScript). What's more, PHP is easy. If you've ever tried to learn it and been put off by a plethora of jargon and technical mumbo-jumbo then you're in for a real treat, because Robin Nixon's Crash Courses have helped tens of thousands of people learn the new skills they need.
