What is PHP?

Overview of PHP
PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into your HTML web pages. PHP accesses a large variety of functions and tools to let you run from the most basic of form submission to complicated E-Commerce online shopping websites. PHP can also work with a database, like MySQL to support the development of dynamic, interactive web applications.

Using PHP
Conexim offers support for PHP on any web hosting plan, so there is no need to ask for any extra services or be charged for an extra service. To implement and make PHP work for you, you can simply type in your PHP code into any HTML file and rename that file with a '.php' extension.

e.g:

Open file example.html.

Code inside example.html:

<html>

<body>

<?php

{PHP code will go in here}

?>

</body>

</html>



Save example.html as example.php.
