This is an excerpt of chapter 12 of “Dreamweaver MX: PHP Web Development” by Gareth Downes-Powell, Tim Green, Bruno Mairlot, published by
glasshaus, isbn 1904151116, as part of the
dreamweaver pro series. All rights reserved. In this chapter, we'll take a look at hand coding within the Dreamweaver MX environment—that is, typing in and amending PHP code and HTML.
We'll start with an overview of PHP code syntax. We won't go into too much depth, but will give enough explanation to give you a step up towards writing your own PHP code and understanding the examples in this chapter.
We'll then discuss the benefits of hand coding, setting up the code-editing environment, and explain the new features of Dreamweaver MX that make hand coding easier.
There are various good coding practices, which will be explained along with details of the functions in Dreamweaver MX that can help you to achieve them. You'll be able to ensure that your code is readable, and easy to edit if you need to change it in the future.
