Well I don’t really have anything to say about the next vid in the VTC tutorials except that you may as well skip it ….. or not. It’s up to you. I wouldn’t mind getting my three minutes and eight seconds back. Just kidding. Basically they are trying to drum it in to us that php and html are different beasts. Pages generated by php are not the same as html. Server side scripts and client side scripts are not the same. They are different. Not the same. Got it?

This also means that when you view pages generated by php you won’t really see much of the code. Mostly just html.

Well, back to My first script, Video No.6.

This is an interesting video. It is very concise and brief but the script doesn’t do anything . That’s not exactly true. It does give an example of what was drummed into us in the previous video. I recommend that you watch it.

At this point I am going to temporally, at least, stop using the VTC videos. Why? In the previous video it gave us an example of  a script and showed it in action but actually we haven’t set up a server or anything like that yet. In fact we don’t know how yet. I guess they assume we know about that kind of thing already. Well they may have mentioned that they did indeed assume we knew about that type of thing in a previous video.

Conclusion: This particular VTC video is not for complete beginners of php.
