[Year 12 IT Apps] PHP programming..

[Litsa Tzelepis]

Hi Kent,

I haven't used PHP this year, I opted for JavaScript instead for my Year
11's.
After, the whole unit, my technicians informed me that PHP is much easier to
handle and said it was similar to HTML type coding. Also, it is apparently
easier to read (high-level).

So next year, PHP will be my preferred language.

Litsa

> How easy to learn is PHP? Havent used it but am interested/keen to find
out more about it as a potential classroom language. Have found VB6 pretty
easy to pick up having just learned it this semester. ie PHP for a 'self
learner' to then teach it.  No, I dont mean the idiots guide to PHP, coz I'm
no idiot!
