This book on PHP programming contains proven steps and strategies on how to code in PHP and build websites. I have provided functional codes so that you can study the details, understand how it works, and start practicing right away. You can load up the codes to directly display on the webpage as each code is already embedded in an HTML page.
The best way to work with the codes is to customize them by introducing the changes you want to make, and then loading them up on the webpage. PHP is an interesting language but it is technical as well. You may see errors popping up everywhere on the editor. Therefore, you should study the codes that are given in the book carefully. Start by pasting as they are written into the editor, and then load them up to display the web page. The most technical part is the section on object-oriented programming. However, with a bit of extra focus, you can master it as well.
Programming is about how much you practice in the text editor. The more you write a code in different styles and with different values, the better is the chance that you can master it.
