<h3>Network Computing takes a look at Web Server technologies</h3>
|

<p>
|
|
They didn't quite manage to get the name of PHP right, and they have a few
|
|
contradictions here and there, but overall the combination of Apache and PHP
|
|
fared much better than IIS/ASP and Netscape/Java in this <a href="http://www.nwc.com/1020/1020f1.html">
|
|
article</a>. Don't forget to check the links in the blue panel on the right for more detailed

info on each system they tested.

<h3>CNET's Builder.com discovers PHP</h3>

<h3>PHP/MySQL Tutorials on HotWired</h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Graeme Merrall has written a 3-part tutorial on PHP/MySQL that is worth a
|
|
read if you are new to PHP. Head on over to
|
|
<a href="http://www.hotwired.com/webmonkey/databases/tutorials/tutorial4.html">
|
|
HotWired's WebMonkey Site</a> to read it. For other tutorials and interesting
|
|
articles check out <a href="http://www.phpbuilder.com">PHPBuilder.com</a> as well.

<h3>What is PHP?</h3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
PHP is a server-side, cross-platform, HTML embedded scripting language.
|
|
If you are completely new to PHP and want to get some idea of how it works,
|
|
have a look at the <a href="tut.php3">Introductory Tutorial</a>. Once you get
|
|
beyond that have a look at the example archive sites and some of the other
|
|
resources available in the <a href="links.php3">Links</a> section.
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
<h3>So, how much does it cost?</h3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
This may sound a little foreign to all you folks coming from a non-Unix
|
|
background, but PHP doesn't cost anything. You can use it for commercial
|
|
and/or non-commercial use all you want. You can give it to your friends,
|
|
print it out and hang it on your wall or eat it for lunch. Welcome to
|
|
the world of <a href="http://www.opensource.org">Open Source</a> software!
|
|
Smile, be happy, the world is good. For the full legalese, see the
|
|
official <a href="license.html">license</a>.
|
|
</P>

<h3>Year 2000 Compliance</h3>
|
|
Just like your C compiler or your favourite text editor, PHP is just about as
|
|
year 2000 compliant as your pencil. If you're still worried (perhaps all
|
|
pencils are built to break on December 31st 1999?) -
|
|
<a href="y2k.php3">read this</a>.
