Eli, the Computer Guy - Part 5


PHP Programming Part 5

HTML Forms and PHP Programming


  1. What does it mean when Eli says that HTML creates static pages while PHP creates dynamic pages?

  2. HTML is what creates the webpage in front of you. It is hard-coded. PHP is able to take information from things such as forms and send it to a destination. It makes the website 'useful' while HTML makes it easy to use.


  3. In this exercise, you will use an HTML Textbox, an Option Box, and a Radio Button. What function does each of these input methods provide?

  4. Textbox allows the user to input text. Option Box gives you a list of choices. Radio button is like option box but instead of a drop-down list, the choices are limited and shown.
