I'm tinkering with the Diablo Network, and nearly strangled myself with the network cables under the desk.

Oops -that's my trick. Normally after hubby has unplugged my printer to plug some new gadget he has brought to charge

Who was it that did something similar and killed their mouse?

Nah - it was a big do for lots of contractors.

And I'm not THAT desperate to meet them!

Oh at least in the big do's you can mingle.

I have just had a look at a couple of sites and it looks a little like HTML - Oh well I will know Monday if I have the gig or not.

PHP?

What you're seeing there is HTML, with bits of PHP code embedded in it.

Basically, a PHP file can either be pure code, or an HTML template, similar to ASP and JSP. So in something like

<div id="masthead">
   <h1><?php echo($site->name) ?></h1>
   <h2><?php echo($site->strapline) ?></h2>
</div>
<ul id="navigation">
   <?php foreach($site->pages as $page) : ?>
   <li><a href="<?php echo($page->URL) ?>"><?php echo($page->title) ?></a></li>
   <?php endforeach ; ?>
</ul>

there's actually a load of HTML and PHP mashed together.

Of course some buffoons will have loads of business logic and database access stuff all mixed in together with the HTML, but a competent developer should have abstracted all that away into separate files.

Such PHP on its own looks more like C++, Java or JavaScript:

<?php

class Category {
    
    var $id;
    var $title;
    
    function Category($id, $title) {
        $this->id = $id;
        $this->title = $title;
    }

    function capitalise_title() {
        return strtoupper($this->title);
    }

}

?>

(That's PHP4 - there's better syntax for class definitions in PHP5.)
