PHP Programmer or Web Developer?

You must install the MySql only in the server since your php program is running only on server.\n\nbefore firing any querry start your MySql sever if it is not by default.\n\nThe accss denied problem is due to the rights may be you are not been specified in the groups to connect to MySql.\n\ndatabase server is the application software which runs only on the server like Linux, Win 2000 server.these kinds of server only listen database protocol and handle the task of data related querry eg MS-Access, Postgres etc.

i'm a web developer too and i use ASP and SQL Server 2000. i've already attended seminars on .NET and, based on your current proficiency, i think ASP.NET would be the best alternative for now. ASP.NET takes a little getting used to if you're used to the regular ASP programming since you don't code it straight to the HTML/ASP page itself. it's a bit like Visual InterDev and VB combined where you make use of "code-behind". if you want fast results, go for .NET since it has an easy Package and Deploy feature for ASP.NET, making server side and client side setup and configuration much simpler.

Are you looking at those languages specifically or any scripting language to build dynamic webpages with?  If the latter I would recommend starting with PHP.  It is easier to learn and it is free.  Most webhosts offer it and there are tons of tutorials out there.  If you want to just try it out on your computer, I'd recommend XAMPP.  It is a working version of Apache, Mysql, PHP and Perl all together in one easy-to-install package.  I keep a copy on my USB drive so I can do my development anywhere.

Your question cannot be answered. Again, it is too broad, and -- with all due respect -- it's obvious you are highly confused. \n\nYou should read a few primer books about PHP, then refocus your questions. Again, I think you will find PHP For Dummies to be a very wise $30 investment at this juncture.

Web Designers are still in relatively high demand, but the need for programmers is increasing as well.  The long and short of it though is that you can't be a web designer nowadays without being a competent programmer.  It's just which discipline you focus on, the groundwork is basically the same.

I don't think either is any better. It all depends on the what you want to do and what environment you want to do it in.\n\nIf you want a more open source environment you might look at JSP running on an Apache web server for example. Otherwise, you might be leaning towards ASP.Net, which is a bit more proprietary and needs some version of IIS. I think I have heard of some plugin or extension that allows ASP.Net applications to run on an Apache server. As for PHP it will run anywhere with almost no setup.\n\nAll three languages are very flexible in terms of what you can do with them.\n\nPHP has been around for a long time and has become very robust. http://www.php.net hosts a magnificent library of the built-in functions that extend the PHP framework.\n\nJSP is based off of the Java language, which can sometimes be a bear to learn, but allows for a very interactive user experience. JSP also has a strong library of work that can be easily built off of.\n\nAll anyone really talks about when talking about ASP.Net is its framework. .Net has very robust framework that allows you to easily extend user controls as well as any built-in types or methods.\n\nIn terms of documentation, PHP and JSP have really good documentation because of its user base. So it is fairly safe to say that if you can't find it in the documentation is has probably can't be done. .NET, on the other hand, has a lot of documentation, but you are better off looking through a book or some forums for help.

There are lots of various scripts in Internet.\nIf PHP is good for you. try the following links, just two of thousands:

There is no specific answer to this. But\n\nYahoo\n\nUses a lot of PHP and MySQL. The creator of PHP[1] and a core developer of MySQL[2] work for Yahoo. Most of the servers are customised Linux \n\nGoogle \n\nUses customised redhat for servers.

You have to decide whether you want to go for desktop application programming or for website development.\n\nFor desktop application programming you should concentrate on VC++.net, C# and Vb.net. On the other hand for Website development  you should concentrate on Asp.net, C#, and Vb.net. Vb.net is the easiest language to learn, c# and asp are difficult, while Vc++ is the most difficult. Knowledge of .net framework is necessay for both options. \n\nMore over you should have complete understanding of Object Oriented Programming (OOPS) concepts. You should also study atleast one DBMS like SQL server, My SQL, Oracle etc. \n\nInstitues will get you started on programming in .net. They will teach you the basics. You have to study and experiment own your own to get deep knowledge of dot net. You can take help from MSDN, online forums and books. This is true for all programming languages.

A programmer is a person who writes the lines of codes of a computer program.\n\nA developer is a person who designs designs the logic for and writes software.\n\nThe major difference is that the programmer doesn't design the software, s/he writes the code as directed by the developer. The developer can do both things.\n\nMany developers started as programmers and "graduated" so to speak with experience and training in design and development.

The web that you see is a mixture of different technologies. First get the basic HTML and javascript books to get you started with static sites. But my favourite is dynamic ones. Many technologies are out there like .NET, PHP, ASP, JSP and others. Find out about these technologies and specialize on one of them. If you ask me I would go for PHP.

I personally don't like either language.  I go with PHP on a Linux server.  However with the given choices I would have to say that Java on a Linux server is the best.

Yup I am a web application developer mostly working with .net application. I love this job but it can become stressful at times and you usually have to keep up to date with the current technology. Also knowing one programming language is not enough but you'll have to know a couple in order to work in this field.

As a professional web programmer I would suggest to use http://www.pixel2life.com as it is an amazing source, than probably http://www.w3schools.com/ and for server side like php i would say php.net . But i highly recommend o'riley medias in a nutshell series. as well as sams learn...in 10 minutes
