----------------------------------------
|
|
SYNTAX
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
All PHP code must be between "<?php" and "?>":
|
|
<?php
|
|
echo "Like this.";
|
|
?>
|
|
|
|
Every statement ends with a semicolon, all function arguments
|
|
are seperated by commas, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
OPERATORS
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
Normal stuff (like +, -, etc.), but *also*:
|
|
. concatenation (mainly for strings, like "a" . "b" ... "ab")
|
|
++ increment (add one, I.E. 1++ ... 2)
|
|
-- decrement (subtract one, I.E. 2-- ... 1)
|
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
COMPARISON OPERATORS
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
== equal (same data)
|
|
=== identical (same type + data)
|
|
!= not-equal (different data)
|
|
!== not-identicial (different type or data)
|
|
< less-than
|
|
> greater-than
|
|
<= less-than or equal-to
|
|
>= greater-than or equal-to
|
|
?? null coalescing (choose first variable that's non-null,
|
|
from left to right)
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
VARIABLES
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
All variables start like "$". Assignment is like this:
|
|
|
|
$variable = "value";
|
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
FUNCTIONS
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
Make a function like a lot of languages:
|
|
|
|
function FUNCTION_NAME($ARGUMENT, $ARGUMENT) {
|
|
BLAH BLAH BLAH;
|
|
return BLAH;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
... replace FUNCTION_NAME with the name, $ARGUMENT with a variable name,
|
|
etc. etc.
|
|
|
|
If you want an argument to be optional, assign it a default value, like:
|
|
|
|
function FUNCTION_NAME($ARGUMENT = "default", $ARGUMENT = 2) {
|
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
ARRAYS
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
Make an array with
|
|
|
|
array(KEY=>VALUE, KEY=>VALUE);
|
|
|
|
VARIABLE can be a string or a number.
|
|
|
|
Get an array value like
|
|
|
|
$array[KEY]
|
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
GLOBAL VARIABLES
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
There are some important global variables--
|
|
|
|
$GET Hosts all GET data.
|
|
$POST All POST data
|
|
$SERVER SERVER data
|
|
$GLOBALS Contains all global vars.
|
|
|
|
They're all arrays.
|
|
Variables are local to their function-- and often, global variables from
|
|
certain functions won't be accessible in the global scope of another.
|
|
|
|
To reliably access (inter-file) globals, access them like values in an
|
|
array of $GLOBALS
|
|
|
|
$GLOBALS[KEY]
|
|
|
|
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
ETC.
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
Really, most of PHP is really similar to other languages.
|
|
You should be able to read it pretty easily-- if there's something
|
|
you don't quite get, you can use the Wikibook
|
|
|
|
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/PHP_Programming/
|
|
|
|
For quick reference. And for function definitions/examples, check the
|
|
PHP documentation

Also Google loves you <3
