PHP 5 is the current version of the language with its main enhancements being in the areas of object-oriented programming. All versions of PHP newer than version 2 are currently supported and in use.

PHP code is generally embedded into an existing web page through the use of code delimiters in a similar manner as ASP, ASP.NET or Ruby. Unlike JavaScript, which runs within a browser, PHP code gets interpreted on the server, generating HTML that gets sent to the client browser to be rendered. One of the language’s benefits is its ease of use for newer developers, while still retaining a robust list of advanced features for more experienced programmers to exploit.

While it is primarily used for web site programming, PHP can also be used as a command-line scripting language suitable for simple text processing tasks. It also can be used to develop desktop applications with a graphical interface using the PHP-GTK library extension, but this isn’t the best use for PHP when compared to other languages designed for GUI development.

A major advantage of PHP is its neutrality towards operating systems and web server software. It works on all major operating system platforms, and supports most of the major web servers including Apache and Microsoft’s IIS. Another main feature is PHP’s ubiquitous database support which includes both large proprietary systems like Oracle and open source options like mySQL.

The success of PHP is an excellent statement about the quality of open source initiatives in a largely proprietary software development world.

Some people may worry that if they have free web hosting from free webspace hosts, or even if they have cheap web hosting, that they will not be able to use php scripting. This worry is unfounded, because hosts realise that php web applications are such powerful tools that they will make sure to include it. PHP is entirely free and open source, as well, so they won’t have to charge extra for people to use it like they might with proprietary languages. It’s fairly easy to learn php scripting and the use of object oriented php if you’ve used other languages in the past, as it shares many of the same ideas and patterns.

Even better, since it’s an open source movement, there are plenty of php IDE toolkits you can use to further implement this powerful language. Eclipse, Netbeans, or Zend are all examples of a php IDE that further enhance the abilities of object oriented php.

Here are just a few of the things you can accomplish easily with php scripting:
* Make a php web application that connects to a MySQL database so users can input data and collate it from one central location.
* Allow users to send e-mails with a web-based form and protect yourself from spam.
* Allow users to upload files in a secure environment.
* Keep track of downloads for your files.

Product Description
This book is about writing software that makes the most effective use of the system you’re running on — code that interfaces directly with the kernel and core system libraries, including the shell, text editor, compiler, debugger, core utilities, and system daemons. The majority of both Unix and Linux code is still written at the system level, and Linux System Programming focuses on everything above the kernel, where applications such as Apache, bash, cp, vim, Emac… More >>

The three most important aspects of a website are a clean and organized website, a functional website, and a website that is optimized for the search engines.

I think the most important aspect of a website is a clean and organized layout. One that provides the visitor with a sense of what the website is about and how to find the information they came for.

The second most important aspect of a website is it’s functionality. The way data is displayed must be easy to understand. If user input is required, the input form must be intuitive and make sense. Catching errors before they make it to your website is imperative.

Increased traffic through Search Engine Optimization comes in last, only because it does no good to be at the top of the search engine results, if no one stays on your website.

How it’s Done

I use PHP, MySql, HTML, Cascading Style Sheets, the JavaScript programming language, and AJAX as needed to create state of the art interactive websites and browser based applications.

If you don’t know what PHP is or any of the other technologies I mentioned, that’s OK. I bet I would struggle to do what you do. I’m a computer programmer, mainly a freelance PHP programmer. You do not need to know what I know! One of the things I do best is help others do what they do best. I’m a people person and a programmer rolled into one.

Meeting Your Need

I have an edge over my peers. I have a good understanding of the Internet and what it takes to have a successful website. I design clean and functional websites and optimize them for the search engines. If having a clean and organized website, a functional website, a website that is optimized for the search engines is important to you, give me a send a mail asif.khalyani@msn.com or complete my contact form and we can talk about how I can assist you with your goals.

Why Hire PHPAsKS

Some programmers try to guess what you want in a site. Sure, they understand how to lay out a website. But there is more to a website than simply its basic design.

Goals? I want to understand your needs, your goals, and objectives for your website. This will help me build a site for you that is clean, organized and functional for your visitors – and most importantly, is successful for you. I also understand search engine optimization and how to succeed with the search engines. Very few programmers understand SEO. I use these valuable SEO principles in my own business and can help you put them to use in your business.

I’m new to linux and to shell programming. I have an assignment to create a shell script that shows all the folders, sub folders and files of the current directory. LS does this. But I must count how many duplicate lines each file has, and show the line that is repeated the most times in each file.

I really have no idea where to start. How can I read/compare lines within a file?

Thanks in advance!
