 PHP
 PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor
 Originally called Personal Home Page Tools
 Popular server-side scripting technology
 Open-source
 Anyone may view, modify and redistribute source
code
 Supported freely by community
 Platform independent 3
 Source-code not visible by client
 View Source in browsers does not display the PHP code
 Various built-in functions allow for fast
development
 PHP supports many databases (MySQL,
Informix, Oracle, Sybase, Solid, PostgreSQL,
Generic ODBC, etc.)
 PHP is compatible with almost all servers
used today (Apache, IIS, etc.)
PHP FeaturesPHP Features
 Easy learning
 Syntax Perl- and C-like syntax. Relatively easy to
learn.
 Large function library
 Embedded directly into HTML
 Interpreted, no need to compile
 Open Source server-side scripting language
designed specifically for the web.
PHP Features(cont.)PHP Features(cont.)
 Conceived in 1994, now used on +10 million web
sites.
 Outputs not only HTML but can output XML,
images (JPG & PNG), PDF files and even Flash
movies all generated on the fly. Can write these
files to the file system.
 PHP also has support for talking to other services
using protocols such as LDAP, IMAP, SNMP,
NNTP, POP3, HTTP.
Using PHP you..
 Can performs system functions, i.e. from files on a system
it can create, open, read, write, and close them.
 Can handle forms, i.e. gather data from files, save data to
a file, thru email you can send data, return data to the
user.
 Can add, delete, modify elements within your database
thru PHP.
 Access cookies variables and set cookies.
 Can restrict users to access some pages of website.
 Can encrypt data.

History of PHPHistory of PHP
 PHP began in 1995 when Rasmus Lerdorf developed a
Perl/CGI script toolset he called the Personal Home Page
or PHP
 PHP 2 released 1997 (PHP now stands for Hypertext
Processor). Lerdorf developed it further, using C instead
 PHP3 released in 1998 (50,000 users)
 PHP4 released in 2000 (3.6 million domains). Considered
debut of functional language and including Perl parsing,
with other major features
 PHP5.0.0 released July 13, 2004 (113 libraries>1,000
functions with extensive object-oriented programming)
 PHP 6 is yet to released
Implementations
 The PHP language was originally implemented as an interpreter
 Several compilers have been developed which decouple the
PHP language from the interpreter.
 Advantages of compilation include better execution speed,
static analysis, and improved interoperability with code written
in other languages.
 Phalanger, which compiles PHP into Common Intermediate
Language (CIL) byte code, and HipHop, developed at Facebook
and now available as open source, which transforms the PHP
Script into C++, then compiles it, reducing server load up to 50%
 PHP scripts can also be deployed in executable format using
a PHP compiler.
Basics
Basic applications
 Structurally similar to C/C++
 Supports procedural and object-oriented paradigm (to
some degree)
 Scripting delimiters
 <? php ?>
 Must enclose all script code
 Variables preceded by $ symbol
 Case-sensitive
 End statements with semicolon
 Comments
 // for single line
 /* */ for multiline
 Filenames end with .php by convention

PHP Operators
Operators are used to operate on values. There are
four classifications of operators:
 Arithmetic
 Assignment
 Comparison
 Logical
PHP Arrays
In PHP, there are three kind of arrays:
 Numeric array
 Associative array
 Multidimensional array
Control Structures
 Wide Variety available
 if, else, elseif
 while, do-while
 for, foreach
 break, continue, switch
 require, include, require_once, include_once
PHP Hello World
Above is the PHP source code.
PHP Hello World
It renders as HTML that looks like this:

Security issues
 About 30% of all vulnerabilities listed on the National
Vulnerability Database are linked to PHP.
 These are caused mostly by not following best practice
programming rules; technical security flaws of the language
itself or of its core libraries are not frequent (23 in 2008,
about 1% of the total).
 Recognizing that programmers make mistakes, some
languages include taint checking to automatically detect the
lack of input validation which induces many issues.
