PHP is an open source server-side scripting language designed for Web development to produce dynamic Web pages . It is one of the first developed server-side scripting languages to be embedded into an HTML source document rather than calling an external file to process data. The code is interpreted by a Web server with a PHP processor module which generates the resulting Web page. It also has evolved to include a command-line interface capability and can be used in standalone graphical applications . [2] PHP can be deployed on most Web servers and also as a standalone shell on almost every operating system and platform , free of charge. [3] A competitor to Microsoft 's Active Server Pages (ASP) server-side script engine [4] and similar languages, PHP is installed on more than 20 million Web sites and 1 million Web servers . [5] Software that uses PHP includes Drupal , Joomla , MediaWiki , and WordPress .

PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor is a widely used, general-purpose scripting language that was originally designed for web development to produce dynamic web pages . For this purpose, PHP code is embedded into the HTML source document and interpreted by a web server with a PHP processor module, which generates the web page document. As a general-purpose programming language, PHP code is processed by an interpreter application in command-line mode performing desired operating system operations and producing program output on its standard output channel. It may also function as a graphical application. PHP is available as a processor for most modern web servers and as a standalone interpreter on most operating systems and computing platforms .

PHP (a recursive acronym for " P HP: H ypertext P reprocessor "; actually a retronym (see history )) is a widely-used open-source programming language primarily for server-side applications and developing dynamic web content. Famous examples of PHP applications include phpBB and MediaWiki , the software behind Wikipedia . The PHP model can be seen as an alternative to Microsoft 's ASP / VBScript / JScript system, Macromedia 's ColdFusion system, Sun Microsystems ' JSP / Java system, and to the CGI / Perl system.
