Add Back-End Functionality with PHP & MySQL

So you’re comfortable making static web pages, but now you want to have your site actually do something? 

Learn PHP & MySQL Fundamentals

This training introduces you to PHP and MySQL, giving you a fundamental understanding of those two building blocks of dynamic websites.

We’ll show you how to work with forms, sanitize user input for security, send emails, work with cookies to collect information on your users and upload files. You’ll interact with databases using SQL to fetch, insert, update, delete, and search records. You’ll learn how to use phpMyAdmin to create databases and tables, as well as data-typing and indexes.

What is PHP?

PHP is the web’s most popular server-side scripting language. Huge sites like Facebook, Wikipedia, Baidu, Tumblr and more run on it as it is fast, free, stable, and feature-rich. PHP can help bring your website to life, changing it from a static HTML-only experience to a two-way interactive user experience. PHP is the backbone of many web related activities that we take for granted, such as handling form submissions, powering e-commerce transactions, and interacting with a database.

In addition many of the most popular CMS (Content Management Systems) such as WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla are written in PHP. Understanding this language will enable you to have a deeper understanding of these web tools making them easier to customize for your needs.

What is MySQL?

What database is nearly always paired with PHP? MySQL. MySQL is the world’s most popular open source database. Your database can store customer information, product information, and much, much more. Together PHP and MySQL are available for free on nearly every host.

Please note that to run a local server on each machine we use XAMPP (Free) for the PC and MAMP Pro ($79) for the Mac.

This class was a fantastic overview of PHP. After working in Front End development for many years and touching PHP and working with databases, this course really helped piece it all together for me. I only wish I had taken it sooner. The speed and topic coverage was just perfect, and the book is a great resource that I can use to refresh at any time.

PHP & MySQL is a great introductory class. Jeremy skillfully guided the students through the PHP syntax, SQL statements, database, form validation, and setting up the server. He took extra time to work closely with students and went the extra distance as needed, filling gaps with bonus classes including how to upload files to the server. Attend this class if you are looking to get started with PHP programming.

I went into this class knowing that I really need to get an overview of PHP. I wasn't exactly looking forward to it, but it turned out that the class was a great introduction and actually left me excited to learn more and develop my PHP skills. Thanks!

Learn the basics of PHP & MySQL for Back-end Functionality and Databasing

PHP & MySQL
  • PHP is a free and open source language for back-end web development. It can create web pages dynamically by interacting with a database, collect and process data from web forms, and much more.
  • MySQL is a popular open source database that is commonly used with PHP.
Front-End & Back-End
  • The front-end of websites involve coding HTML, CSS, and JavaScript that control the look and feel of a website. 
  • The back-end of websites involve coding languages such as PHP, MySQL, Ruby on Rails, Node.js, etc. to create application-like functionality that typically interact with a database.
  • The front-end works in a web browser, whereas the back-end works on a web server.
HTML
  • To create webpages and emails we use HTML code (Hypertext Markup Language).
  • HTML tags mark up (label) content to indicate headings, paragraphs, lists, links, images, and more.
  • You can get a quick start in our 3-hour Intro to HTML & CSS class, dive deeper in our 18-hour Web Development with HTML & CSS class, or for the most thorough training earn a certificate in front-end development, full-stack development, or web design.
CSS
  • CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) code is used to style the contents of a webpage (or email), based on the HTML markup.
  • CSS controls the appearance of everything, from fonts and color, to building responsive page layouts that look good across screen sizes (mobile, tablet, and desktop).
  • Start learning CSS in our Web Development Level with HTML & CSS class. Dive deeper in our Advanced HTML & CSS class where we cover many important CSS concepts. In our Flexbox, Grid, & Bootstrap class you’ll learn how to use flexbox and grid to layout, align, and reorder webpage content, as well as make it adapt to different size screens. The classes can be taken individually, or as part of a certificate program.
