The following screencast is a little intro to what PHP is. It will discuss some of the common things that PHP can do for web designers and explain a little about how it works when interacting with databases. This will just be a short intro, as PHP can do a lot more when it comes to more advanced features, but these will be slightly more common examples that you are using even while reading this blog post.

Great Intro to PHP. I like the way you can set pages to update automatically. I'll be watching for more. Thanks Stephen
I found your screencast to be very interesting, I didn't know user names and passwords were read by PHP. I'm just starting to learn HTML and found the links to different websites you had to be helpful. Great job.
Very good and clear info, php is something I plan to learn. I wish I knew what you know. I also saw some sites you had listed like htmlgodies, I will be going there. Thanks again for your screencast.
Reminded me of several lectures from my A+ classes where this information was brought up though different labs I've taken. Good lesson for people curious about their own computers who haven't delved that far in yet.
Is PHP similar to Javascript or Visual Basic? I took these classes and liked what they do. So much more that HTML, or at least my HTML skills.
I enjoyed your presentation.
As far as syntax goes, javascript is sort of similar to php, but it deals with more of the "after a webpage loads" part. When you register an account for some websites, and click submit, it may have an alert box pop up saying your username has too few characters or something. It will then stop the page from sending before it does. Javascript is great in combo with PHP, but as for what they do, it's not even close to similar.
