Syntax of PHP File


Tutorials Php

Topic

Syntax used in PHP File



Explanation

A PHP script starts with <?php and ends with ?>. This script can be placed anywhere in the document. PHP usually has HTML tags, along with some PHP coding.

PHP Syntax:

<?php
PHP Code Here
?>


Note:

The PHP file should be saved using the *.php extension, not *.html, if saved in *.html extension then the PHP code will not be executed.

For Example:

To display an message "Good Morning" following code is executed.

    
    <html>
    <body>
    
    <?php
    echo "Good Morning";
    //This is a comment
    # This is a comment
    /*
    This is
    a comment
    block
    */
   ?>
   
   
   </body>
   </html>
   
Result:
    Good Morning

In the above example the "echo" command displays the string given inside quotes. All the PHP code lines should end with a ";". PHP supports all formats of comment's used in UNIX,C languages like "//","/**/","#".
