PHP 5.5 Web Programming

The PHP 5.5.0alpha2 is the newest release in the family of PHP programming. This release adds new features and fixes some bugs. PHP 5.5.0 Alpha 2 comes with new features and improvements such as:

• Support for using empty on the result of function calls and other expressions,
• Systemtap support by enabling system tap compatible DTrace probes on Linux,
• Optimized access to temporary and compiled VM variables. 8% less memory reads.
• Please, note that this alpha version also introduces the ext/MySQL depreciation.

General improvements:

• Added system tap support by enabling system tap compatible DTrace probes on Linux.
• Added support for using empty on the result of function calls and other expressions (https://wiki.php.net/rfc/empty_isset_exprs).
• Optimized access to temporary and compiled VM variables. 8% less memory reads. (Dmitry)
• The VM stacks for passing function arguments and syntactically nested calls were merged into a single stack. The stack size needed for array execution is calculated at compile time and reallocated at once. As result, all the stack push operations don’t require checks for stack overflow anymore.
• This extension is now deprecated, and deprecation warnings will be generated when connections are established to databases via mysql_connect, mysql_pconnect, or through implicit connection: use MySQLi or PDO_MySQL instead (https://wiki.php.net/rfc/mysql_deprecation). (Adam)

PHP Programming

PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.

MVI’s staff offers advanced PHP and MySQL programming.

PHP / MySQL programming is one of the hottest scripting languages to be found on the Internet today. The fact that PHP code can be inserted directly alongside HTML makes the language all the more convenient for programmers to use. Not to mention PHP is open source and free from costly licensing fees and when used in combination with MySQL, PHP can accomplish almost the identical things as an ASP.NET/MSSQL configuration.

Much of PHP / MySQL programming is a combination of Perl, Java and C concepts. Some features of using PHP include performing sophisticated mathematical calculations, providing network information, offering mail and regular expression capabilities, and much more.

The strongest feature of PHP is its database interfacing capability, particularly with MySQL. Connecting a database to the Internet has never been so easy. What’s more, it supports many of the most popular database servers on the market, including MySQL (perhaps the most powerful and most affordable database server solution found on the market today).

Additional Information About PHP Programming

For those of you unfamiliar with PHP programming and its many applications, PHP is a script language and interpreter that is used primarily on Linux web servers. The acronym PHP, previously derived from “Personal Home Page Tools”, now stands for “Hypertext Preprocessor”. PHP programming is an alternative to Microsoft’s Active Server Page (ASP) technology. As with ASP, PHP script is dynamic and embedded within a web page along with static HTML. Before the web page is sent to a user, the web server calls PHP interpreter to perform the operations called for in the PHP script, which can be any number of custom PHP applications including retrieving information from a MySQL database or connecting customers to a fully interactive PHP shopping cart.
