Curriculum

PHP & MySQL Foundations

This section lays the groundwork for your PHP journey. You'll start with an introduction to PHP, covering its role in web development and essential syntax. Lectures delve into embedding PHP in HTML, the structure of PHP scripts, and installation procedures across different OS platforms. You'll learn to write your first PHP scripts, understand case sensitivity, and master variables, constants, and data types. Operators, including arithmetic, assignment, string, increment/decrement, comparison, logical, and conditional operators, are explained in detail. Finally, you will explore control flow statements (conditionals and loops) and user-defined functions. The section concludes with an in-depth exploration of array manipulation techniques, including working with indexed, associative, and multidimensional arrays, along with various array functions and sorting methods.

CakePHP Framework Mastery

This module introduces the CakePHP framework, a powerful tool for simplifying web application development. You'll learn about its history, features, and the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture. Lectures cover installation, configuration, routing, database connectivity (CRUD operations), session and cookie management, and effective error handling. You'll gain practical experience building applications using CakePHP's robust features.

Yii PHP Framework Development

This section focuses on Yii, another popular PHP framework known for its efficiency and performance. You'll learn about its MVC framework, installation, configuration, and creating basic pages. You will also explore advanced features such as controllers, routing, views, widgets, layouts, actions, and managing cookies and sessions. Additionally, this module will cover file uploads, flash data, and creating HTML forms, along with database access and utilizing the Gii extension for code generation.

Building a Complete Web Application

Put your knowledge into practice by developing a full-fledged web application. This project-based section guides you through creating a website from scratch, including building essential components like headers, footers, a home page, an about us page, a services page, and a contact us page. You will also learn how to implement email sending functionality, making your web application fully functional and interactive.

Laravel Framework Introduction

Here you'll dive into the elegant and user-friendly Laravel framework. The lectures will guide you through installation, routing, configuration, and using Laravel's middleware. You’ll get hands-on experience with controllers, request handling, responses, cookies, and views, developing a solid understanding of Laravel's core components and their application in building web apps.

Advanced Laravel Techniques

Building upon the basics of Laravel, this section explores advanced features, including localization, session management, creating forms, validation techniques, AJAX implementation, email handling, and error management. A significant portion of this module focuses on database interactions, covering connectivity, data retrieval (queries), insertion, updates, and security considerations for robust application development.

Server-Side Programming with PHP and XHTML

This module delves into server-side programming using PHP and XHTML. You'll learn how to set up a server environment, create PHP programs that generate XHTML output, and handle forms using GET and POST methods, along with various input types. Lectures cover the use of HEREDOC for efficient HTML generation and advanced techniques for handling form input using conditional statements and loops. This section helps you understand the process of generating dynamic web pages with PHP and XHTML.

Advanced Server-Side Programming Techniques

The final module takes server-side programming to the next level. You'll work with different types of arrays, creating and managing functions, and mastering file handling (reading, writing, and CSV operations). You will learn to use directory functions, effectively retrieve data from MySQL databases, and display the results within XHTML tables, building your expertise in building dynamic and data-driven web applications.
