The course Advanced PHP Programming covers advanced features of PHP.
In the first place it is addressed how to deal with Object Orientation in PHP. Attention is paid to the known object oriented concepts like classes and objects, encapsulation and inheritance and how PHP deals with them.
Also the concept of Exception Handling is covered. New features of PHP 7 are discussed as well.
Another issue is how to handle XML and JSON in PHP. Various XML libraries in PHP are discussed, such as libraries for SAX, DOM, SimpleXML and XPath. Also attention is paid to the handling of JSON data with the JSON library functions.
The use of regular expressions in PHP is also part of the subject matter.
Attention is paid to various libraries for database access such as PDO, PHP Data Objects. Database abstraction, transactions and SQL joins are also discussed.
Further attention is payed to several aspects of security such as security threats, authentication and SSL.
In the following module it is discussed how interactive PHP Ajax Web Applications can be developed. The XAJAX Framework is addressed in this respect.
In the module Web Services both SOAP and REST Services are discussed.
Finally an overview of Design Patterns is given and a number of Design Patterns in PHP applications are treated. In conjunction with the course PHP Programming this course covers the requirements for the Zend PHP Certification exam.
The course Advanced PHP Programming is intended for PHP web developers with basic knowledge of PHP who want to make advanced use of PHP to write dynamic Web applications.
To participate in this course knowledge and experience with PHP is required as is discussed in the course PHP Programming.
The concepts are treated on the basis of presentation slides. Demos are used to clarify the theory. The theory is interspersed with exercises. The course uses PHP 7 which is installed in a WAMP package with the Apache Web server and MySQL.
Participants receive an official certificate Advanced PHP Programming after successful completion of the course.
