@crazymagical If you want to render your PHP files on your local computer, you will need something like XAMPP. In these videos, I was just uploading the files to a web server, which of course, doesn’t need any special software… but, now, I use XAMPP to render all my files locally while I build my scripts…
Great Video,
Question: do i “have to” install something additional to use php for example “XXAMP”? or if i just name the file “something.php” the computer and server would recognize it regardless and out put the codes properly?
please reply,
thank you.
@freedompksg shouldn’t be, but I don’t know for sure… check the notepad ++ documentation. also, the colors only show after you save it as a PHP file, etc… because at that point is when it knows what kind of file it is… unsaved, it doesn’t know and won’t display the colors.
mine is windows xp but if i use notepad ++ will there be a difference because it doesn’t seem to show any colors but only as if it was normal notepad
the only one i’ve ever bought is the PHP 5 and MySQL bible… got it from Barnes and Nobles. and, honestly, i’ve used some of the stuff from there, but not a lot. online tutorials is the main way i’ve learned… whether that’s good or bad i guess is up to you
know any good books to help learn more?
Thanks! Got some more in the works!!
nice tutorials!!
Google!
where can i get free PHP templates?
