Hire Skilled PHP Programmer on contract basis

PHP is an open-source project including an engine to simple programs called PHP scripts and a large library of pre-built scripts. It is a general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.

PHP is a robust, server-side language that can offer a great deal of functionality, and it can serve pages quickly. Much of its development is in the hands of a company called Zend, which sells packaged PHP products, programming tools and support.

PHP has caught on widely. About 22 million Web sites employ it, and usage is steadily increasing. About 450 programmers have privileges to approve changes to the software. Major companies that employ PHP include Yahoo, Lufthansa and Deutsche Telekom's T-Online.

Although it's designed for use on the Web, it can be used as a command line language as well. If you are writing a Web application that requires certain pieces of code to be executed every hour or once a day you can schedule PHP code to be executed whenever you like.

PHP allows you to provide localization to site visitors. When users hit the site, they're automatically provided with the page's default text in their native language, based upon their browser preference.

Other benefits of PHP are that it allows you to create PDF documents on the fly. You can leverage advanced mathematical capabilities, as well as object-oriented programming methodologies. You can read and write to local and IMAP mailboxes; use any standard Internet protocol from within PHP.

Want to write a PHP-based FTP, Web, or news client? No problem! You can create your own protocol with the client and server written entirely in PHP using standard TCP/IP sockets. You can implement cryptographic support, as well as support for various database servers.

The future of PHP programming looks very bright. Recent estimatesfrom Zend place the number of active PHP developers at somewhere around 500,000. Also is now a serious contender as a general purpose language, rather than one focused on Web development, due its many revisions. And they might also open the door to new possibilities, such as building fast, pure PHP search engines. One thing that's obvious is the PHP development team's willingness to implement fundamental standards within the PHP engine itself.

The trend for web sites is now moving towards data-driven web sites with a solid bank of information to support them. PHP is increasingly used in conjunction with MySQL – a very popular, widely available, command-driven relational database query language – to create useful and powerful web applications, such as search engines and random fact generators.
