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.
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 ecommerce transactions, and interacting with a database.
In addition, many of the most popular CMSs (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 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.

Noble Desktop provided me with a solid foundation of web development knowledge. Their instructors are easy to approach, and the curriculum is laid out in a logical progression that makes sense and helps you to grasp a lot of information. Thank you Noble Desktop for helping me in pursuing my next career path!
I would highly recommend Noble Desktop. They offer a welcoming environment and amazing courses.
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!
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.
Once again I leave a Noble class feeling like I really learned the material. This PHP class will definitely help take my web development to the next level.
