3.3.0 DESIGN LANGUAGE, DATABASE AND LIBRARIES USED
In the design of CVMIMS, the following programs and language were made used of among which were discussed below:
3.3.1 LANGUAGE
PHP
PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development but also used as a general-purpose programming language. As of January 2013, PHP was installed on more than 240millions websites (39% of those sampled) and 2.1 million web servers. Originally created by: Ras. Mus. Lerdorf in 1994, the reference implementation of PHP is now produced by the PHP group. While PHP originally stood for personal Homepage, it now stands for PHP. Hypertext pre-processor, a recursive acronym (Bunley Wiskeat 1982)
PHP code can be simply mixed with HTML code, or it can be used in combination with various TEMPLATING engine send web-frameworks. PHP code is usually processed by a PHP interpreter, which is usually implemented as a web Sewers native module or a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) executable. After the codes is interpreted and executed the web sewer sends resulting output to its client, usually, in a form of a part of the generated webpage for example, PHP code can generated a web page HTML include a command-line interface (CLI) capability and can be used in stand lone graphical applications.
PHP is free software release under PHP license. PHP has been widely ported and can be deployed on most web sewers on almost every operating system and platform, free of charge (Bunley Wiskeat, 1982).
PHP development began in 1994 when the developer Rasmus Lerdorf wrote a series of Common Gateway Interface (CGI) Perl script, which he used to maintain his personal home page. The tools perform tasks such as displaying his resume and recording his web traffic. He remote these scripts in (for performing reasons, extending them to add the ability to work with the web from and to communicate with database, and called this implementation personal homepage/forms interpreter or PHP/FI (Bunley Wiskeat, 1982)
PHP/FI could be used to build simple, dynamic web application. Lerdorf initially announced the release of PHP/FI as “Personal Home Page Tools (PHP tool) version 1.0†publicity to accelerate bug location and improve the code, on the use of net discussion group comp. information systems www.authoring (Gion June 8, 1995).
This release already had the basic functionality that PHP as of 2013. This included Perl-like variables, from handling, and the ability to embed HTML. The syntax resembled that of Perl but was simpler, more limited and less consistent (Bunley Wiskeat, 1982).
Early PHP was not intended to be a new programming language and grew organically, with Lerdorf noting in retrospect. “I don’t know how to stop it, there was never any intend to write a programming language. I have absolutely no. idea how to write a programming language, I just kept adding the next logical step on the way. A development team began to form and after months of work and better testing, officially release PHP/FI in November 1997.
One criticism of PHP is that it was not originally designed, but instead it was developed organically; among other things, this has led to inconsistent naming of functions and inconsistent ordering of their parameters. In some case, the functions names were chosen to match the lower-level libraries which PHP was “Wrapping†while in some very early versions of PHP the length of the function names was used internally as a hash function, so names were chosen to improve the distribution of hash values (Bunley Wiskeat, 1992)
HTML
HTML or Hyper Text Mark-up Language is the standard mark-up language used to create web page. HTML is written in the form of elements consisting of tags enclosed in angle bracket (like <html>). HTML tags most commonly come in pairs like <hl> and <\hl>, although some tags, represent empty elements and so are unpaired, for example <img> (Phil John 1996).
The first tag in a pair is the start tag and the second tag, is the end tag (they are also called opening tags and closing tags). The purpose of a web browser is to read HTML document and compose them into visible or audible web pages. The browser does not display the HTML tags, but uses the tags to interpret the content of the page. HTML describes the structure of a website semantically along with cause for presentation, making it a mark-up language rather than a programming language (Phil John, 1996).
HTML elements form the building block of all websites HTML allows images and object to be embedded and can be used to create interactive forms. It provides a means to create structure document by denoting structural semantics for text such as heading, paragraphs, lists, link, quotes and other items. it can embed script written in language such as Java Script which affect the behaviour of HTML web pages (Phil John 1996) Web browsers can also refer to cascading style (CSS) to define the look and layout of text and material. The W3C, maintainer of both the HTML and the CSS standard, encourages the use of
