Difference between CSS,HTML and PHP

What’s The Difference Between CSS, HTML and PHP?


Maybe you’re beginning to build a simple website, or just want a better understanding of the many acronyms you’ve been hearing lately.
“CSS“, “HTML” and “PHP” are thrown around so often and with such ease, you’re embarrassed to ask what they mean.
Following is my attempt to explain these terms (mainly to myself) in plain English.

The Difference Between CSS, HTML and PHP

CSS = Style: Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) dictate your website’s look and feel.
Font size, font color, font type, styling around images, page layout, mouse-over effects and more are all determined by CSS.
In WordPress, CSS can be edited within the “Editor” section under Appearance in the Dashboard. Some WordPress themes, like Headway, allow you to visually edit the CSS (meaning you don’t need to get eyeball headaches from coding).
The colors, fonts and styles of this entire website are driven by CSS.
HTML = Content: HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is the building-blocks of web pages.
HTML allows you to put images, text, videos, forms and other pieces of content together into a cohesive webpage. You can also tweak
text words, resize images, and add links to either.
Anything that you can read or view on this website is being presented to you (by way of a browser) with HTML.
PHP = Functionality: Originally meaning “Personal Home Page“, PHP is what makes your website do stuff (I really can’t say it any better than that).
It’s a language of web applications like WordPress plugins, Donation widgets and other things that do stuff.
If you use the search box at the top of the screen, PHP will perform the functions that need to be done to give you the search results.

Here’s another way to think about these technologies

Salesforce and Box join forces to ease file access for workers

Image
Salesforce and Box join forces to ease file access for workers Box and Salesforce announced a new partnership Wednesday aimed at helping their joint customers get work done more efficiently by bringing documents from their cloud storage and content management solution into Salesforce. Using a new connector that will launch in February, users will be able to share Box files inside Salesforce, both from the service's web interface and mobile applications. For example, when commenting on a sales opportunity, users will be able to browse the files that are available to them in Box, and attach them to a message. It's designed to be useful for collaborating on things like sales slide decks and other materials, to make sure that people are always up to date with the content they need. All of the sharing permissions are still managed by Box, so users will have to make sure that the people who they're sharing files with through Salesforce are authorized to view them in Bo...

Definition of Web Design

Image
Web Design Web design is the process of creating  websites . It encompasses several different aspects, including  webpage  layout, content production, and graphic design. While the terms web design and  web development  are often used interchangeably, web design is technically a subset of the broader category of web development. Websites are created using a  markup language  called  HTML . Web designers build webpages using HTML  tags  that define the content and  metadata  of each page. The layout and appearance of the elements within a webpage are typically defined using  CSS , or cascading style sheets. Therefore, most websites include a combination of HTML and CSS that defines how each page will appear in a  browser . Some web designers prefer to hand code pages (typing HTML and CSS from scratch), while others use a " WYSIWYG " editor like Adobe Dreamweaver. This type of editor provides a visual interfac...
