HTML Website

Author admin    Category Web Development     Tags

A page on the internet is made up of HTML, thus making it an HTML Website. However, the backend is usually a scripting language such as ASP, PHP, or ColdFusion, which allows you do interact with users and save data.

HTML is simply a markup language, which look like tags <in_brackets>. It's very easy to learn, and it goes perfectly with CSS. If you have an HTML Website, you should try to include CSS as much as possible so that it's easier to edit in the future.

You can Learn HTML very easily at W3Schools. All you need to edit HTML is notepad, and to view it you need a web browser (Which is the thing you are viewing this site in, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, etc).

With an HTML Website you can create links, information pages, add images, and hundreds of other things. But you can not make your HTML website save files automatically, and record information in a database unless you are using a server-side language, mentioned above. That is where things get very difficult, and it's best to start early.


If you practice HTML for 2 weeks, you will know it very well. Make sure to learn how to make your HTML Website the best it can be, you might enjoy it and you could possibly make a career in it.

PHP & Before Variables

What is the &  in PHP before a variable? The easiest way to explain is to give you an example..

 
$fruit = "apple";
$myItem = &$fruit;
 
echo $myItem;
 

If you look at the above example, let's break it down:
1. $fruit is set to apple,
2. and $myItem references the value of $fruit.
3. So if you echo $myItem, it will return the value of whatever $fruit is.
Does that make sense?

Let's make it a tiny bit more complex to give you a better idea. Again, in PHP the & before a variable is a reference, meaning it will change if $fruit changes. If you were to do the following:

$fruit = "apple";
$myItem = &$fruit;
 
echo $myItem;
 
// Now we are changing the fruit value
$fruit = "banana";
 
// And again we are referencing from myItem
echo $myItem;
 

The output will be "applebanana", because we have changed the value of $fruit again, and $myItem will reference it's current state.

I honestly rarely ever use reference variables, perhaps it's a lack of skill or technique but I don't find much use for it in day to day programming. They are useful in things like a PHP OOP Registry Class, but I don't find a huge use for & references variables while doing day to day tasks.
