I was wondering if anyone knew of a place where I can download a program that will write php code for me? Like some html programs: You fill a form and a page is generated to preview and then you have the option to submit it generating the code to place in your website. I was wondering if there is a program for PHP coding.

No there isn't, since php is meant for smart people.

If there is I would be willing to bet it would do the same as all of the HTML editors I've come across, and that is put in unnecessary and totally untendable code. However, you could do a search on any of the search engines for PHP editor, and see what you get. And BG, only one comment. *smile* Is that why you don't use it? PHP I mean? *grin* J/K.

Well the reason I ask is my sponsor who created the PHP codes and pages for the site is no longer communicating with me. I ask him to do something real simple and he fights me on it. Or he wont do it at all. So I dropped him. I've been on google all damn day looking. If I had a choice, I'd stay with HTML but well.... I felt like I was bullied by my own sponsor who felt that PHP was the way to go. But I'll try google tomorrow for PHP editor. I was looking under PHP generator.

Damn wc you found me out. Actually I've done nothing with web programming in the past two years, and when I did it it was all asp, because that's what they told me to use and they were paying me.

LOL BG, and Blinty; hope I'm spelling it correctly, you could still go to HTML, all up to what you want to do.

php isn't like html at all. you actually ahve to learn it. it's a real language unless html. Html is there to make web pages look pretty. php is there to make your pages do stuff.

Have you looked into using a content management system? There are several out there.

A content management system allows you to put up a website, and add content, and all the back-end stuff like logging in if you want it, posting comments etc is already done for you. You just have to turn it on.

If you are looking for a PHP content management system, I personally recommend drupal (http://www.drupal.org)

Hope this helps.
