PHP Cookbook Ch 8: Web Basics (PDF). Web programming is probably why you’re reading this book. It’s why the first version of PHP was written and what continues to make it so popular today. PHP makes it easy to write dynamic web programs that do almost anything. Other chapters cover various PHP capabilities, like graphics, regular expressions, database access, and file I/O. These capabilities are all part of web programming, but this chapter focuses on some web-specific concepts and organizational topics that will make your web programming stronger.
