PHP switches on free and open initial libraries with a kernel.



PHP - system essentially informed on the Internet with the units, built in to get access to servers of the PROGRAM of the FILE TRANSFER, many database servers, nested libraries SQL, such as enclosed MySQL and SQLite, servers LDAP, etc. is a lot of the functions familiar to programmers C, such as in stdio to a family, are accessible in standard PHP. PHP traditionally used features, such as "magic_quotes_gpc" and "magic_quotes_runtime" which try to avoid apostrophes (') and inverted commas (") in sequences in the supposition, therefore they will be used in databases, to prevent attacks of injection SQL. It leads to clutter on which avoid data, and to problems when data actually have not got used as an input to a database and when used possibility to avoid is not completely correct.


To make the code portable between servers which do, and not to use magic inverted commas, developers can supply the code with the foreword with the original to reverse effect of magic inverted commas when it is applied.


PHP allows developers to write extensions in C to add functionality to language PHP. They can then to be collected in PHP or are loaded dynamically in execution time. Extensions have been written to add support of Windows API, process control on Similar Unix operating systems, sequence of multibyte (Unicode), a curl, and some popular formats of compression. Some more unusual features switch on integration with a relay Internet chat, dynamic generation of maps and the Nanosno-clay maintenance of Flash, and even speech synthesis. The library of Community of PHP (PECL Extension the project is a warehouse for extensions on language PHP.



Zend gives the program of the certificate to programmers to become certified developers PHP.
