New To PHP Coding, Advice Needed!

Hello Everyone,

I want to create my own Mafia game such as, "Infamous Gangsters" have i come to the right place

Basically im new to PHP coding and i want to know a list of things before i start to learn

1.) Does it cost to create a website such as: Infamousgangsters.com?
2.) How long does it take to learn PHP coding before i have enough experience to create one?
3) Does anyone have any useful documents on PHP coding which i can read to learn basic knowledge?

Many Thanks,
Providence

 

1) A simple website costs around $100 a year (hosting + domain name).
2) Depends on your motivation, and your personal effort, I think you should start with creating a simple website to get experience.
3) w3schools.com

 

It depends how good your basic skills are in HTML and other? Is this your first time coding anything or are you already pretty solid in HTML?
HTML is the basic site (statis site) the way you see every website on the Internet regardless if they were coded in PHP etc
PHP is a server side and performs tasks think of HTML as a house (simplified example) and PHP are workers outside the house that you have run and get stuff or run and deliver stuff and report back with new info. Entire websites can be coded around PHP and given the .php extension, but these are still HTML related websites, much of the code displayed, even if its retrieved by PHP , even if its pulled from a database. All pages are displayed by standard HTML equivalent . It's hard to think of a website that could be completely coded only in PHP with no HTML related function. either image src or forms would fall back on HTML, even if they're coded in a PHP format.

Learn HTML if you don't already know it. Then download WAMP (the complete PHP/phpadmin set up with Apache) easy to install like any program and WAMP is free. Then start with your basic "Hello World" scripts. PHP has 3 basic sections. 1. math and 2. logic 3. coding for HTML basic functions/displays etc
If you have Windows XP you're in luck phpadmin from WAMP works perfect with XP but is buggy and havok with all later versions of Windows, unless you go through it to modify it, and if you turn off all the .asp Internet program features on later windows models. Otherwise use the SQL database on your new host. Buy a PHP/SQL Book and read it while you're in your 'office' on free time instead of the shampoo bottle. Acetyl Laurel Sulfate. = a form of acid to cause the soap suds action. also the leading cause of 'frizzy' hair as its a hair folicle /strand allergic reaction and the only known cause of frizzy puffy hair.

 

You will be better off just buying other people's services. It may take months and months to get a good grasp on php coding. Plus people who provide those types of services already have php snippets available and anything can be easily put together (by them).

 

PHP Documentation :
1. php.net/docs.php
2. w3schools.com

 

php is not easy for an begginer.

 

Hey today i knew the new thing about the Doctype in HTML tag. It is very important for the design issue solve in to ie, You can not let go this thing. It always on the first line of your web page.

 

It will take a while to get really good, but the best thing you can do is just look at other peoples code, see what it does, and use the new techniques you've learnt in your own code, until you know what to do in certain situations.

 

the main easily learn for php is see this http://w3schools.com , this is the best site for php and php.net also there providing many examples.thanks

 

Hi, try this

 

To create a game like that, I doubt PHP is all that's necessary.

 

@Andre91, ofcourse PHP is necessary in text based games. Most text based games on the NET run through PHP.

 

1. Server ~ 200$/month OR hosting ~10$/month, domain 8$/year
2. 2 months -> 20 year (Depends on you)
3. www.php.net
