Basic PHP Syntax
Before beginning PHP U have to know Basic HTML:
A PHP scripting block always starts with <?php and ends with ?>. A PHP scripting block can be placed anywhere in the document.On servers with shorthand support enabled you can start a scripting block with <? and end with ?>.
For maximum compatibility, we recommend that you use the standard form (<?php) rather than the shorthand form.
<?php ?> |
Below, we have an example of a simple PHP script which sends the text "Hello World" to the browser:
<html> <body> <?php echo "Hello World"; ?> </body> </html> |
There are two basic statements to output text with PHP: echo and print. In the example above we have used the echo statement to output the text "Hello World".
Note: The file must have a .php extension. If the file has a .html extension, the PHP code will not be executed.
