What is PHP? Print

  • 0

PHP is a powerful scripting language that allows for performing various tasks before passing it to the web browser for display. Typically it's used to grab information from a database, like Wordpress, or it performs various other dynamic operations that aren't possible using HTML. PHP files have the extension ".php" and are run by the same user as the account owner, so need "permissions" set on them of only 644 (rw-r-r).
