Zend PHP tutorials Part 5 and Part 8 Assignment
For this assignment we had to read and follow Zend's PHP tutorials Part 5 and 8. Part 5: Rank and File had to do with creating an external file with data already in it and using a .php file with code that calls and displays the content inside the external file. The .txt file contained a recipe for A Spanish Omelette which sounded delicious. Part 8 was the most fun because it was somewhat hard and needed a lot of attention to detail. Part 8, we had to make a MySQL database on HostGator. After we inputted data into that database we then had to make a website utilizing PHP to call and display the contents of that database. What made it a little tricky was that we had to code in the php file the username, password, and database name in order to access the actual database in HostGator which required special syntax and functions in the php file. Below are pictures of some the code that had to be used and a link for each lesson that displays the work that was done.
