PHP Hypertext Preprocessor is a tool for making dynamic websites with embedded code in HTML-pages. It is widely used and has many useful features like good database connectivity. The PHP tips section has useful information for php coders.
Simple PHP code embedded in HTML.
<html>
<body>
<?php
echo "Hello World!";
?>
</body>
</html>
Critics of PHP often point out its lack of namespaces, lack of references and no effective mean of creating complex data structures and lack of a standardized database interface.
