Title: PHP
Post by: Michael Kennedy on 2002-08-22T13:09:55-05:00 (Thursday)
A while back someone posted to the other forum about learning PHP.  Has anyone here done that?  I'm becoming moderately educated in PHP and was wondering who else might have experience with it.  Thanks.

I have become quite familiar with PHP.  My site is http://harmoni.cs.siue.edu/.  It will be a hosting ground for source code management.

If you need help, I'm willing to offer it.

OK, cool.  I'm not to the point where I'm doing anything that requires help, but it's great to know of another person I could fire an email off to.  I had to get off the general PHP mainling list cause I had trouble handling the 250ish emails per day it generated.  :)  I lasted 1 month of that and was done.

Right now I'm using PHP/mySQL to do a company intranet page.  The beginning of it is going to be a unified an paper-less way to handle item requests to help the purchaser out (and to keep track of how long ti takes the purchaser, who orders how much stuff, how often, etc).  Then it's going to expand into a Helpdesk system using modules from the item request part.  Pretty neat stuff.

I'm loving PHP so far- the best language (IMHO) that I've ever messed with.

I held an internship this summer developing a database application.  We decided to use php as the front end web portal language.  For now I have a very simple crude access point running for testing purposes, but feel free to check it out.  Some source code is posted too.

I could always use PHP help. I'm trying to figure out why the code snippets aren't showing.
