PHP is an extremely powerful hypertext preprocessor and scripting language. It can be used much like Perl in a CGI (Common Gateway Interface) environment or it can be embedded directly into HTML pages. PHP handles the specific issues of dynamic web pages very well. A more thorough introduction to PHP can be found here.

    In addition, PHP supports many current technologies, including dynamic image creation, IMAP/POP mail protocols, LDAP directory access, dynamic PDF file creation, and seamless access to a large number of database engines, including Oracle, Sybase, PostgreSQL, and MySQL. Loopshot supports PHP on our servers.
