| Introduction to Web Development with PHP
This presentation will provide an overview of how browser-based database applications work, with an iSeries audience in mind. It will demonstrate the client-side languages - HTML, CSS and JavaScript - and show how PHP scripts running on a server can dynamically build web pages including content from an iSeries database.
We will look at some common formatting techniques in HTML and CSS, demonstrate how HTML forms interact with PHP scripts, and show what JavaScript is and how it makes the browser more functional. With these basics concepts in mind, you should be able to make better decisions about how to sort through the many options available for web-enabling your legacy databases.
This presentation is for beginner to novice web programmers, or those who would like to understand the technologies and languages involved in a typical web application.
This session is a recommended (not mandatory) pre-requisite for John's "Introduction to PHP" lab.
