第一个 PHP 页面

在 web 服务器根目录(DOCUMENT_ROOT)下建立一个文件名为 hello.php,然后完成如下内容:

Example #1 第一个 PHP 脚本:hello.php

<html>
 <head>
  <title>PHP 测试</title>
 </head>
 <body>
 <?php echo '<p>Hello World</p>'?>
 </body>
</html>

在浏览器的地址栏里输入 web 服务器的 URL 访问这个文件,在结尾加上“/hello.php”。如果本地开发,那么这个 URL 一般是 http://localhost/hello.php 或者 http://127.0.0.1/hello.php,当然这取决于 web 服务器的设置。如果所有的设置都正确,那么这个文件将被 PHP 解析,浏览器中将会输出如下结果:

<html>
 <head>
  <title>PHP 测试</title>
 </head>
 <body>
 <p>Hello World</p>
 </body>
</html>

该程序非常的简单,它仅仅只是利用了 PHP 的 echo() 语句显示了 Hello World。用户一定不会满足与此。请注意该文件无需被执行或以任何方式指定。服务器会找到该文件并提供给 PHP 进行解释,因为使用了“.php”的扩展名,服务器已被配置成自动传递有着“.php”扩展名的文件给 PHP。一个普通的 HTML 文件,加上了几个特别的标签,就可以做很多非常有趣的事情!

如果试过了这个例子,但是没有得到任何输出,或者浏览器弹出了下载框,或者浏览器以文本方式显示了源文件,可能的原因是服务器还没有支持 PHP,或者没有正确配置。需要请服务器的管理员根据本手册“安装”一章的内容使得服务器支持 PHP。如果本地开发,请阅读手册有关安装的章节以确保所有的设置都正确。还要确认通过浏览器访问的 URL 确实指向了服务器上的这个文件。如果只是从本地文件系统调用这个文件,它不会被 PHP 解析。如果问题仍然存在,请通过 » PHP 在线支持中的各种方式获取帮助。

以上例子的目的是为了显示 PHP 特殊标识符的格式。在这个例子中,用 <?php 来表示 PHP 标识符的起始,然后放入 PHP 语句并通过加上一个终止标识符 ?> 来退出 PHP 模式。可以根据自己的需要在 HTML 文件中像这样开启或关闭 PHP 模式。请参阅手册中“PHP 基本语法”以获取更多信息。

Note: 关于换行

尽管换行在 HTML 中的实际意义不是很大,但适当地使用换行可以使 HTML 代码易读且美观。PHP 会在输出时自动删除其结束符 ?> 后的一个换行。该功能主要是针对在一个页面中嵌入多段 PHP 代码或者包含了无实质性输出的 PHP 文件而设计,与此同时也造成了一些疑惑。如果在 PHP 结束符 ?> 后输出换行的话,可以在其后加一个空格,或者在最后的一个 echo/print 语句中加入一个换行。

Note: 关于文本编辑器

有很多文本编辑器以及集成开发环境(IDE)可以被用来建立、编辑和管理 PHP 文件。这些工具中的一部分被列在 » PHP 编辑器列表中。如果希望推荐其它的编辑器,请访问以上页面,并要求该页面的维护者将你推荐的编辑器加入到该列表中。使用支持语法高亮功能的编辑器会给开发带来很多帮助。

Note: 关于文字处理器

诸如 StarOffice Writer、Microsoft Word 和 Abiword 的文字处理器不适合用来编辑 PHP 程序。如果希望用以上这些工具的某一种来处理脚本,必须保证将结果存成了纯文本格式,否则 PHP 将无法读取并运行这些脚本。

Note: 关于 Windows 记事本

如果使用 Windows 记事本来编写 PHP 脚本,需要注意在保存文件时,文件的后缀名应该为 .php(记事本将自动在文件名后面加上 .txt 后缀,除非采取以下措施之一来避免这种情况)。当保存文件时,系统会让你指定文件的文件名,这时请将文件名加上引号(例如 "hello.php")。或者,也可以点击“保存”对话框中的“保存类型”下拉菜单,并将设置改为“所有文件”。这样在输入文件名的时候就不用加引号了。

现在已经成功建立了一个简单的 PHP 脚本。还可以建立一个最著名的 PHP 脚本。调用函数 phpinfo(),将会看到很多有关自己系统有用的信息,以及预定义变量、已经加载的 PHP 模块和配置信息。请花一些时间来查看这些重要的信息。

Example #2 从 PHP 获取系统信息

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

If, when you test the file in a browser, you see the HTML code rather than your greeting, it may be because you launched the page by dragging it to your browser. The URL should start with 'http://' NOT 'file://'

save your php script without the BOM when using UTF-8 or you will see "锘" in front of any output. A solution is save it without BOM(available in editplus and notepad++)

miklcct at gmail dot com (03-Jan-2010 01:56)

If you save your code as UTF-8, make sure that the BOM (EF BB BF) is not present as the first 3 bytes of the file otherwise it may interfere with the code if the PHP need to be run before any output (e.g. header()).

Well, but PHP file ownership is important when server has safe_mode enabled - HTTP server checks it, uses it to set UID of process which executes it, or may even refuse to execute such a file - e.g. if one user is owner of main PHP file, and the main file includes another, owned by other user, this is considered to be security violation (quite reasonably).

On Windows, if file extensions can be hidden, you may not SEE that you have accidently saved a file as 'Text Documents' (and that the browser has added '.txt' to the end of your 'page.html', resulting in 'page.html.txt'.) You still see only 'page.html' even though it's really 'page.html.txt'. Also, if you try to rename it, it won't work because it's not overwriting the '.txt' part and not changing the filetype.

By the way, the hiding of file extensions is ALSO a way malicious crackers get you to click on an executable virus, fooling you into thinking it's an innocent document. You should always be able to view the extensions of all files on your system.

To view all extensions, open Windows Explorer. Click the 'Tools' menu, then 'Folder Options'. In the dialog box that appears, click the 'View' tab. In the 'Advanced Settings Box', scroll down to 'Hide extensions for known file types' and click the checkbox next to it to REMOVE THE CHECKMARK. Click the 'Apply to All Folders' button near the top of the dialog. This may or may not take a few minutes. Then click the 'OK' button to close the dialog.

Now, if something accidentally gets saved as the wrong filetype, resulting in another file extension automatically appended to the one you typed, you will see it and be able to rename it.

Of course, a badly-named file can be renamed simply by using 'Save As' and saving it as the proper filetype, but if you can't see the file extension, you may not know that is the problem. Also, renaming is easier than opening, resaving as a new filetype, and then deleting the old version!

document_root variable is  located in your web server configuration file

OS X users editing in TextEdit will need to make sure their TextEdit preferences are set to allow plain text files.  Under the TextEdit pull-down menu, choose PREFERENCES, then under NEW DOCUMENT ATTRIBUTES in the window that pops up, click PLAIN TEXT. 

Then, in the section of that same window called "saving," DESELECT "append .txt extension to plain text files."  This will allow you to save your files with a .php extension.

Then close the PREFERENCES window.  You're good to go.

Expansion on saving w/ notepad/wordpad: (tested on XP; but should work on 2000,NT, and 98)

You can associate the .php file extension w/ Windows w/o going into the registry.

Open up My Computer or MSIE in file mode. Go to folder options > File types tab. Now click new. Add the extension as PHP or php. If you can't find the PHP application in the dropdown list under advanced, just go OK, for now. At least the extension is in place.

Now, try and create a php file by using the directions from this page of the PHP tutorial (should save it with the rest of your HTML files, i.e. your DocumentRoot). If you go to view your php file listed in the directory, and you see that it's still a .txt file, right-click the icon to see if you can locate "open with." If so, you should be able to browse for the appropriate file, which should be at (may vary, depending on where you installed PHP):

C:\PHP\php.exe

Click that as the default program, and the PHP logo should appear on all your scripts, and no problems saving should occur w/ any program.

Good luck.

Note on permissions of php files:  You don't have to use 'chmod 0755' under UNIX or Linux; the permissions need not be set to executable.  Again, this is more like a html file than a cgi script.  The only mandatory requirement is that the web server process has read access to the php file(s).  With many Linux systems, it is popular for Apache to run under the 'apache' account.  Given that HTML and other web files, like php, are often owned by user 'root' and group 'web' (or another similar group name), acceptable permissions might be those achieved with 'chmod 664' or 'chmod 644'.  The web server process, running under the 'apache' account, will inherit read only permissions.  The 'apache' account is not root and is not a member of the 'web' group, so the "other" portion of the permissions (the last "4") applies.
