Okay, i've got most standard html sorted. Not everything, but enough to get along with and do what i want. Plans to further this envolved sorting out flash/swish, dhtml and a programming/scripting language.
dhtml can wait a while. flash is progressing easily enough for what i currently need from it, and php?
I was speaking with someone about it today, and they offered to lend me a book. I now have it sat on my desk, it's not as thick as i'd expected, and claims it can be embedded in html, and that that weans it's not much harder than html is.
So do i *want* to learn php?
That's where you guys come in, i'd just like to know what programming language you prefer and why. And also if you'd recommend that one to a beginner. Oh, and if you use two or more, is it easy to learn a second one later?
Thanks in advance, dd.

Of course, you can always run it as cgi:
#!/usr/lib/php4
But then, that just totally defeats the object of PHP :)

All you need to do is make sure the Server your hosting your Web Site supports PHP (which freeola do). Then really all you need to do is rename a html file to a php file ....
Example:
Page1.htm ... to ... Page1.php
and the Server takes care of the PHP code :o)
It's pretty easy to grasp as I've done ok. I think you can to, just give yourself a little time :o)
And when they say you can embed PHP into HTML Code, it's just a case of putting at the end, withing a regular HTML page.
My HTML Code
My PHP Code
?>
My HTML code, some more.
Good luck :o)

I'd say PHP is the easiest to learn. It alsoi embeds extremely nicely:
::HTML STUFF::
::PHP STUFF::
?>
::HTML STUFF::
It's great. Learning is also very easy. Take a few tutorials, read yer book. I just learnt by using the manual and finding out stuff I didn't know how to do. I suggest you download a local version - very *very* useful.
