For 2023 (and 2024 ...) - we are now fully retired from IT training.
We have made many, many friends over 25 years of teaching about Python, Tcl, Perl, PHP, Lua, Java, C and C++ - and MySQL, Linux and Solaris/SunOS too. Our training notes are now very much out of date, but due to upward compatability most of our examples remain operational and even relevant ad you are welcome to make us if them "as seen" and at your own risk.

Lisa and I (Graham) now live in what was our training centre in Melksham - happy to meet with former delegates here - but do check ahead before coming round. We are far from inactive - rather, enjoying the times that we are retired but still healthy enough in mind and body to be active!

I am also active in many other area and still look after a lot of web sites - you can find an index ((here))

PHP module H201
PHP and MySQL for Content Management
Exercises, examples and other material relating to training module H201. This module is presented on Private Courses and Specially Run Courses only

Modern applications tend to use a combination of technologies to provide the whole solution. This long module is an example of such an application. It's a simple content management system using HTML to format web pages, SQL to hold the content, and PHP to glue the components together. During the course, we won't go through every line of this example, instead, we'll just overview it. When you're writing your own applications after the course, you'll be able to look back at this example and see how we've combined the technologies in a similar application.

3453Reading and using emails including enclosures on your web server.
The imap module ships with PHP, but isn't always built into the server; you need to build PHP with --with-imap if it's not there. But once you do have the module , you can access your POP3 email server direct from PHP. Very recently, I was asked if I could extract attachments / enclosures from emails ...

2071Setting up a MySQL database from PHP

The setup of the database: <?php mysql_connect("localhost","womble","wimbledon"); mysql_query("create database gerald"); mysql_select_db("gerald"); mysql_query("create ...

1576Making PHP and MySQL training relevant to the course delegates
If I'm training on MySQL or PHP, I'll often come up with an example in front of the class - it's much more effective training to see HOW an answer is reached than to simply be presented with a pre-written example. And so it was yesterday that I wrote a small application to extract data from tables ...

1555Advanced Python, Perl, PHP and Tcl training courses / classes
This item is adapted from an answer that I have just written by email - but the question / conundrum as to what to do with fractured advanced training requirements is a common one, so the answer is worth wider sharing. I believe that our solution provides an innovative way of meeting advanced requirements ...

647Checking for MySQL errors
It's worrying when a web site that's been rock solid starts giving intermittent problems - and even more worrying when those intermittent problems just fade away and you're left unsure as to what was the cause of them. I'm afraid I'm the sort who wonders if and when the issue will return. And so it ...
