The Most Useful PHP Script

I’ve been blogging for over a year now, and it occured to me today that I hardly have any articles or posts regarding web development tips and tricks. So I’ve added a new category and will begin filling it out with posts. But on to my topic.

Many new webmasters begin their personal development by learning html. HTML is great for building static webpages, however it has many limitations that make it difficult to conveniently administer a hand coded website without using a server side scripting language such as PHP or ASP. When I began learning ASP I was taught about include files and how a single line of code can save you hours of work coding and recoding the same code across your website.

Include files are the best way to jump into PHP or ASP, they’re very simple to emplement if you’re web server already has PHP or ASP scripting. In PHP you simply place the following line of code at the top of your page.

<? include(‘header.php’) ?>

This will include the file header.php that is in the same directory as the page you are attaching the file to.

Free Open Source PHP Game – Monocountry

This is a file I thought I had lost and would not be able to replace. When I got the Monocountry code it was open source. Now Monocountry is considered simple and outdated but it is the basic framework you need to start a nice php game.

Download Monocountry

If you liked this download you should also check out Kiddie Kartel I found it on the same website for download and if I remember correctly you set up lemonade stands. I’ll see when I set up the demo later.

If you have any problems downloading this script you should check the new landing page on the Web Development Blog.
