.Open Syntax and Semantics for PHP
This page was created by Paul Conrad as part of his Graduate
Independent Study (CSCI695) of the syntax and semantics of the PHP
language.
. Motivation
With the increased usage of PHP as a programming language for
server-side programming, this series of webpages was designed
to aid computer scientist with a quick reference to the semantics
and syntax of this evolving programming language.

. Introduction
The webpages containing the semantics and syntax of PHP are based
on the definitions of PHP 4 in Programming PHP (O'Reilly).  Since PHP is
a quickly evolving language, these set of web pages are going to be based
on PHP 4 which is currently being used in production environments.
