Super-practical PHP: Learn, by example, how to build a smart website with cookies, sessions, login authentication, MySQL integration, Object Oriented PHP and lots more!Let's parse that.This course is super-practical: packed with knowledge you can put to use right away, while still giving you a good foundational understanding of web programming, not just PHP.
Its about building smart websites: these days, its not OK for a website just to look snappy - login, cookies and sessions are considered necessities, not luxuries anymore
In this course, we will learn by example. Each example is self-contained, has its source code attached, and gets across a specific PHP use-case. Each example is simple by itself, but they come together as building blocks to build complex use cases.What's included in this course:Installing and setting up a basic web server with PHP
Web security basics: validating and sanitizing user input data. Web forms, mitigating XSS and XSRF attacks
MySQL Integration and Installation: Connecting to a database, running queries, processing results, prepared statements. Easy integration with MySQL so it's dead simple to work with databases for permanent data storage
Cookies, Sessions and the differences between them, using sessions without cookies
End to end login authentication
Object oriented PHP, classes, inheritance, polymorphism
GET, POST and other superglobalsUsing discussion forumsPlease use the discussion forums on this course to engage with other students and to help each other out. Unfortunately, much as we would like to, it is not possible for us at Loonycorn to respond to individual questions from students:-(We're super small and self-funded with only 2 people developing technical video content. Our mission is to make high-quality courses available at super low prices.
.
The only way to keep our prices this low is to *NOT offer additional technical support over email or in-person*

PHP is a programming language which runs on the server, makes decisions, edits HTML to reflect those decisions and transmits pure HTML to the user. PHP has powerful constructs to work with web sites and abstracts away a lot of the nitty gritty!

Basic Constructs In The PHP Language 10 lectures 01:55:33 Example 1 : Ensure PHP is installed and running on your server The PHP equivalent of "Hello World", more like "Yay, PHP you work!" Example 2 : PHP outputs HTML The output of a PHP program is pure HTML and CSS which is sent down to the client browser. PHP is a server side language which means all the intelligence lies on the server. Example 3 : Variables - containers of data Variables are containers which hold values, the values in a variable can change during the course of the program i.e. the values "vary". Example 4 : Data Types - strings, integers, booleans, doubles Variables can be strings, integers, doubles, booleans - these are the primitive types which form the building blocks of any language Example 5 : Decisions using If-Else and Switch Statements Making decisions is a key to an intelligent site. The if-else and the switch statements are core decision making constructs present in all modern programming languages. Example 6 : Strings - single quotes, double quotes, what's the difference? Strings are just a sequence of characters, learn the details of how to work with strings so you don't get tripped up Example 7 : Logical Operators Combine conditions using "and", "or" and "not". Example 8 : Introduction to Web Forms Web forms are used to get user input which can be processed and stored on a site. Forms integrate seamlessly with PHP. Example 8 : The GET Request There are 2 ways to send requests to the server. The GET uses visible URL parameters and gives rise to bookmarkable and cacheable pages. Example 8 : The POST Request and differences between GET and POST The POST on the other hand uses the request body to send user data. It accepts more data types and is the preferred way to send user input data to the server.

Additional information

No prior programming experience needed, this course starts at zero A little basic HTML, CSS and SQL will be helpful for some of the examples - not really required though!
