Course Objectives An indepth look at server side scripting languages such as PHP and ASP and how they are used to create dynamic and Web 2.0 content, such as blogs, newletters, and RSS feeds. Additional topics covered include server side ecommerce issues such as the management and display of dynamic data, authentication, security, shopping carts, and session management.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • will be able to configure a web server for personal use
  • will be able to demonstrate the effective use of object-oriented coding principles
  • will be able to compare the strengths and weaknesses of PHP and ASP
  • will be able to use a server-side language to deliver and manage dynamic content
  • will be able to identify appropriate security tools and settings which should be included in a commercial web site.
  • will be able to install and incorporate blogs and RSS feeds into a web site.
Course Description An indepth study of the use of PHP as both a procedural and objectoriented langauge to display dynamic data. Topics covered include using PHP to display dynamic content, news, blogs, wikis, RSS syndicate feeds, and newsletters, personal web server installation and configuration, and the use of design patterns in PHP code. This course also introduces ASP.NET and compares and contrasts PHP to ASP.
