Hello! I would really appreciate some answers to a few basic questions. I have done some research online, but it would greatly help me to get direct answers. 1. If my site needs to be available to many browsers, including those that may not be entirely up-to-date, is PHP a safe option? I mean, I know that Flash is something people have to have enabled on their browsers, but I thought I read that PHP is available to all recent browsers as long as the server the site is hosted on supports PHP. Is this true? 2. How can I preview my PHP while I'm coding? I'm using TextWrangler. I have already followed the installation tutorial here: http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/php_leopard.php. The test PHP file does work in my Safari browser. However, when I try to preview my .php files created in TextWrangler with Safari it doesn't work. 3. I need something that functions as an iframe. I've been reading that include() serves this purpose. However, I've found that I have the make the content in the "iframe" the main content and call the things around it. I want to do the reverse. I want the other content on the main html page in place, and just want to call the text in the frame box. Is this doable? Any suggestions? Thanks!
Oh my. :-) Ellen, respectfully, maybe it is best if you take a class of some sort? I think that would give you a great start on how client-side vs. server-side, and Web Development in general works.
