Outcome 1 & 3, easy for the kids to learn, loads of resource out there to
teach from and shows the kids how pages that they use on the web change
dynamically. Fairly easy to set up, although our techies did it for us. We didn’t
get into MySQL but it could be really well used in SofDev.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

yr9 or 10 level depending on a variety of factors. Still waiting on the boss's

<p style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><font size=2 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:10.0pt'>Dear List,<br>
<br>
I would like to have a go at having next year's Year 11s learn
PHP.<br>
<br>
I am interested to hear from others how they are going about this.<br>
<br>
I am thinking I will use a WAMP package (Apache/MySQL/PHP
bundle) <br>
to streamline installation. I do have a machine here I'm going to
set <br>
up as a linux server but I'm apprehensive about giving out accounts on <br>
it, hence the standalone option. For people using WAMP, which one
are <br>
you using?<br>
<br>
Has anyone used the PHP integration in Dreamweaver? They
will be <br>
using Dreamweaver (MX 2004) for web pages so I thought it might make <br>
for a smooth transition, but I haven't yet tried it myself to see how <br>
it works.<br>
<br>
What about PHP frameworks such as Zend Framework--does anyone
use <br>
those for Unit 2 IT or is it better to keep it simple?<br>
<br>
While I'm at it, seeing I will be setting my MySQL anyway--is
anyone <br>
using MySQL (perhaps with a nice web management interface) for the <br>
database topics in Unit 1 or IT Apps Unit 3? I think it may be
too <br>
tricky for many of my kids but thought I would ask the question in any <br>
case.<br>
<br>
