Would you like to be more dynamic? Well, I can’t help you with your per­son­al­ity, but the new video2brain course by David Pow­ers, Intro­duc­ing PHP, will teach you how to cre­ate more dynamic web­sites using PHP. You’ll learn how to set up and con­fig­ure a PHP devel­op­ment envi­ron­ment, then do a series of hands-​​on exer­cises to expe­ri­ence first-​​hand how easy it is to use PHP to cre­ate awe­some dynamic web­sites. David will also teach you some spe­cial time-​​saving tricks for devel­op­ing multiple-​​choice form fields, among other cool things.

This course is full of exam­ples where David shows you how to set up a com­monly used dynamic func­tion using PHP. In this free les­son you’ll see how to use loops to han­dle repet­i­tive oper­a­tions, like lists and num­ber­ing, as well as more com­plex func­tions. One thing I par­tic­u­larly like about this course (well-​​demonstrated in this les­son) is how David starts out by giv­ing you an overview of the struc­ture and pur­pose of the spe­cific con­cept he’s about to teach you, then shows you exactly how to do it on the com­puter. You will also ben­e­fit from his years of expe­ri­ence when he warns you about com­mon pit­falls you might oth­er­wise encounter — which def­i­nitely will save you some head-​​scratching!
