How this Website Works

• This Site is basically a Content Management System, which allows dynamic posting of data


• The website consists of Webpages which can be transmitted by the WebServer to your Browser


• Webpages are coded in programming language 'PHP' (Hypertext Preprocessor)which generates HTML 'Hypertext Markup Language'


• The website also contains a Database Server which the PHP Programs use to store and retrieve data, required to build a WebPage


• The PHP programs can also store data such as pictures, in files on the WebServer


• Webpages can contain 'forms', and 'links', which are sent to the Browser to allow responses from the user


• e.g. The links on the left side of the WebPages, contain a command which tells the PHP programs what to display


• Other Webpages like the 'Contact' form can return text from your Browser, to be processed by the PHP program


• The Webpages can also contain Javascript programs which run in the Browser (e.g the LittleMan)


• The Website uses StyleSheets to format the HTML elements, so that similar elements a formatted the same


• This Website is Hosted on a Linux Server, with the Apache Webserver, the MySQL database, and PHP7
