himy_name_is Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Im currently learning PHP so I can do more productive things with websites, my overall goal is to learn PHP, Javascript, and flash along with some coding so I can make games like Runescape.. I havent been able to find a tutorial that is good at explaining because I just dont understand most of it. If someone knows advanced PHP would you mind teaching me? We could use the tip.it chatroom or something. If you help thanks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
____ Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Well, before you start using php. The Quick Way: 1. Get a free host that supports php The Better Way: 1. Download and Install php 2. Download and Install Apache 3. Download Install MySQL (you can use any SQL interpreter that you want, but MySQL is the most frequent that you'll find on the internet) Now that you've got a www area you can start playing with php scripts. Your best bet is to go over to w3Schools php tutorial and build from there. If you ever get stuck as to how you can do something, always google. And there is always the PHP API documentation at the php website that you really should have a quick read of sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wahoo Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 if you wann a start making a game like runescape you need to learn java, but that takes a long time and is not an easy language, but it is the best one to start on programming wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightshade53 Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 I used easyPHP, its alot easier to install than installing and configuring the MySQL, PHP, Apache. easyPHP installs everything that you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
____ Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 That's all well and good except that PHP5 is the minority when it comes to the version of PHP that is being run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

____ Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 Thanks for the insult, but since I'm in a good mood - I'll just assume you're being a self-absord [developmentally delayed] yourself and leave it at that. The only way you are going to understand anything is if you make an effort. Teaching only gets so far, and since you seem to "be learning php" you should already know enought to do what you want. If you want to start learning "advanced php" download phpbb and read through the scripts for that. Or find some other open source php application and hope you understand what's in front of you. Or you could take the slower way - which is learning how to do things yourself by starting small (like I said before). And it generally the better and easier way to do it. Or is that too much to ask - that you help yourself rather than hoping that some poor bastard is going to waste time on you when you don't even want to do that?

dusqi Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 God.. are you people mentally handicapped? Considering that you're talking to people that already know PHP, whereas you do not, that makes you worse than mentally handicapped. I recommend that no one volunteers to teach someone who is so rude. For it is the greyness of dusk that reigns.The time when the living and the dead exist as one.

jade1234 Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 php is a very very difficult language to learn, i recomment before you go into that you master HTML which is a simple language and at least develop basic skills in C++ java then after you learn that you should have a tech savvy brain making it alot easier to learn php but if you want to learn any programming language i recomment you learn HTML first just so you can get a grasp of what your trying to learn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
