Week 7

This week the lecture was on PHP security measures. What has to be done in order to maintain a secure PHP based website with a SQL server running.

During the workshop we explored the connection between SQL and PHP. Also the the use of email with PHP and the get command used during the PHP was also detailed.

We also learned the basics of SQL statements such as writing a select statement, inserting and deleting a record from a database etc. The email function is is used to send email to a unlimited group if recipients from a email address of the programmers choice. This has its potential privacy and legal issues which were also discussed.

 The get command is simply how PHP used that command to obtain data from a variable.
