Syntax and Semantics for PHP

This page was created by Paul Conrad as part of his Graduate Independent Study (CSCI695) of the syntax and semantics of the PHP language.

Source

Motivation

With the increased usage of PHP as a programming language for server-side programming, this series of webpages was designed to aid computer scientist with a quick reference to the semantics and syntax of this evolving programming language.

Introduction

The webpages containing the semantics and syntax of PHP are based on the definitions of PHP 4 in Programming PHP (O'Reilly). Since PHP is a quickly evolving language, these set of web pages are going to be based on PHP 4 which is currently being used in production environments.
