This course is designed to introduce students to the conceptual, design, and technical aspects of developing server-side interactive websites. Students will learn how to process HTTP requests, dynamically render HTML, populate and store web content in a relational database using SQL, and securely implement login/logout sessions through server-side scripting. Through a succession of projects, students learn and practice how to apply these principles to the creation of interactive and data-driven websites programmed in PHP and SQL. Design, inclusivity, and usability issues are emphasized.
