Description

What will you learn in this PHP Programming Course

Module 1

In this module, you will learn all about Welcome to the world of programming. Web Developers use PHP to create interactive, dynamic websites while making it easy to update and maintain, not to mention, prompt your visitors to purchase, join a list or even tell a friend,

Module 2

In this module, you will learn all about Let’s Start Coding. We’re going to tackle the basics to start with. Getting PHP to write things to the web browser, what variables are and how to use them…examples you can use in just about every web page you ever create.

Module 3

In this module, you will learn all about PHP Strings. contained within quotation marks. String values can be enclosed in either double quote or single quotes. Strings could be considered the building blocks of PHP considering that almost all of the data is going to come from what is contained within a string.

Module 4

In this module, you will learn all about PHP Variables. Variables are part of PHP programming and their purpose is to store a value, whether it be a number (integer), a sentence or phrase (string) or a letter (char). Every variable must have a name, and these names in PHP are case sensitive, meaning $you and $You would be considered different variables.

Module 5

In this module, you will learn all about Useful Variables. The example above simply sets the date command as a variable that is called $today and uses the echo command to display the date on the screen.

Module 6

This module will teach you about PHP Includes & Problem Solving. What happens when you want to add a new page to your site? You would typically have to change the menu on every single page to showcase the new link or item you wanted to add. The manual work involved would cost you a lot of time, and each time you went to update the links or add new ones, you would once again, have to update every other page that this menu appears on.

Module 7

This module will teach you about Tip When Creating Inc Pages. We just discussed how you could save a ton of time updating your websites using simple PHP code. This time, we are going to show you how you can use PHP to make your job as a Webmaster even easier.

Module 8

This module will teach you about Redirecting Using PHP. PHP is also very useful if you are looking to redirect your visitors to other pages or websites. For example, if you are updating your website and do not want people to see the index page, you could use PHP to direct them to a temporary page until you have completed the updates. You could also use PHP to redirect visitors to an external product page using your affiliate link.

Module 9

This module will teach you about Multiple Conditions. Often times, we have to evaluate multiple conditions, in this example, we have to list many different truck models, and in these instances using “Itself” can be a tad cumbersome (writing out a dozen “Itself’ conditions is quite tedious).

Module 10

This module will teach you about PHP Arrays. An array can be thought of as a single variable that stores more than a single value. An array uses a “key” to determine what value to reference.

Module 11

This module will teach you about PHP Loops. Using loops in conjunction with arrays is a great way to improve your PHP scripts, and eases the workload of repetitive tasks.

Module 12

This module will teach you about Note on PHP Math Functions. There is one more loop we are going to cover, and it’s called the
“For Each Loop”. Each Loop
If you wanted to loop through an Associative Array, you would use
the For Each to complete this task. Where the WHILE and FOR loops run until an error is encountered, the FOR EACH loop will run through every single element in the array.

Module 13

In this module, you will learn all about Functions. A function in PHP is really quite easy to understand. It’s a piece of code that can be named and re-used at any time. Functions can help us reduce our coding time significantly, by simply writing the code once and then defining it as a function that can be called on at any time to appear.

Module 14

In this module, you will learn all about PHP Sessions. When you dive deeper into PHP and come to the point where you are interested in displaying specific user/visitor data throughout different areas and pages on your website, it’s time to learn PHP sessions.

Module 15

In this module, you will learn all about Cookies. You have probably heard about cookies, in fact, you most likely have dozens stored on your computer from visits to different websites that you visit regularly or log into. As mentioned earlier, cookies store information on your computer from these visits.

Module 16

In this module, you will learn all about Introduction to MySQL. MySQL and PHP often work closely together, especially for web applications and developments. MySQL is often used in conjunction with PHP for the same reason that made PHP so popular. It is free, widely available and the majority of web hosts support it. There are, however other database systems that PHP works with, but MySQL is by far, the most common and well-known option.

Module 17

In this module, you will learn all about Making The Connection. Analysing the code above, the majority of the code should be pretty easy to understand. The DB name means “Database Name” (whatever you called the database when you created it inside of your hosting account, on your server).

Module 18

This module will teach you about Inserting Data. Placing data into a table is important, however, there are times you are going to want to extract data from a database.

Module 19

This module will teach you about Deleting / Removing Data. Just as we may wish to add data, there are times when removing data is required.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
