Questions : 3 How can we submit a form without a submit button?
Answer : 3 Java script submit() function is used for submit form without submit button on click call document.formname.submit()                        
Questions : 4 In how many ways we can retrieve the data in the result set of MySQL using PHP?         
Answer : 4 We can do it by 4 Ways
1. mysql_fetch_row. , 2. mysql_fetch_array ,
3. mysql_fetch_object  4. mysql_fetch_assoc       
Questions : 5 What is the difference between mysql_fetch_object and mysql_fetch_array?    
Answers : 5 mysql_fetch_object() is similar tomysql_fetch_array(), with one difference - an object is returned, instead of an array. Indirectly, that means that
you can only access the data by the field names, and not by their offsets (numbers are illegal property names).                     
Questions : 6 What are the differences between Get and post methods.   
Answers : 6 There are some difference between GET and POST method
1. GET Method have some limit like only 2Kb data able to send for request
But in POST method unlimited data can we send
2. When we use GET method requested data show in url but
Not in POST method so POST method is good for send sensitive request     
Questions : 7 How can we extract string "pcds.co.in " from a string "http://info@pcds.co.in using regular expression of PHP?

Answers : 8 We can create MySQL database with the use of  mysql_create_db("Database Name")       
Questions : 9 What are the differences between require and include?       
Answers : 9 Both include and require used to include a file but when included file not found  Include send Warning where as Require send Fatal Error .       
Questions : 10  Can we use include ("xyz.PHP") two times in a PHP page "index.PHP"?         
Answers : 10  Yes we can use include("xyz.php") more than one time in any page. but it create a problem when xyz.php file contain some functions declaration then error will come for already declared function in this file else not a prob like if you want to show same content two time in page then must include it two time not a problem 
Questions : 11  What are the different tables(Engine) present in MySQL, which one is default?    
Answers : 11  Following tables (Storage Engine) we can create
1. MyISAM(The default storage engine IN MYSQL Each MyISAM table is stored on disk in three files. The files have names that begin with the table name and have an extension to indicate the file type. An .frm file stores the table format. The data file has an .MYD (MYData) extension. The index file has an .MYI (MYIndex) extension. )
2. InnoDB(InnoDB is a transaction-safe (ACID compliant) storage engine for MySQL that has commit, rollback, and crash-recovery capabilities to protect user data.)
3. Merge
4. Heap (MEMORY)(The MEMORY storage engine creates tables with contents that are stored in memory. Formerly, these were known as HEAP tables. MEMORY is the preferred term, although HEAP remains supported for backward compatibility. )
5. BDB (BerkeleyDB)(Sleepycat Software has provided MySQL with the Berkeley DB transactional storage engine. This storage engine typically is called BDB for short. BDB tables may have a greater chance of surviving crashes and are also capable of COMMIT and ROLLBACK operations on transactions)
6. EXAMPLE
7. FEDERATED (It is a storage engine that accesses data in tables of remote databases rather than in local tables. )
8. ARCHIVE (The ARCHIVE storage engine is used for storing large amounts of data without indexes in a very small footprint. )
9. CSV (The CSV storage engine stores data in text files using comma-separated values format.)
10. BLACKHOLE (The BLACKHOLE storage engine acts as a "black hole" that accepts data but throws it away and does not store it. Retrievals always return an empty result)     
Questions : 12  What is use of header() function in php ?        
Answers: 12 The header() function sends a raw HTTP header to a client. We can use herder ()  function for redirection of pages. It is important to notice that header () must be called before any actual output is seen..

Questions : 22 What are the features and advantages of object-oriented programming?          
Answers : 22 One of the main advantages of OO programming is its ease of
modification; objects can easily be modified and added to a system there by reducing maintenance costs. OO programming is also considered to be better at modeling the real world than is procedural programming. It allows for more complicated and flexible interactions. OO systems are also easier for non-technical personnel to understand and easier for them to participate in the maintenance and enhancement of a system because it appeals to natural human cognition patterns.
For some systems, an OO approach can speed development time since many
objects are standard across systems and can be reused. Components that manage dates, shipping, shopping carts, etc. can be purchased and easily modified for a specific system        
Questions : 23 What are the differences between procedure-oriented languages and object-oriented languages?
Answers : 23 There are lot of difference between procedure language and object oriented like below
1>Procedure language easy for new developer but complex to understand whole software as compare to object oriented model
2>In Procedure language it is difficult to use design pattern mvc , Singleton pattern etc but in OOP you we able to develop design pattern
3>IN OOP language we able to ree use code like Inheritance ,polymorphism etc but this type of thing not available in procedure language on that our Fonda use COPY and PASTE .       
Questions : 24 What is the use of friend function?
Answers : 24 Sometimes a function is best shared among a number of different
classes. Such functions can be declared either as member functions of one class or as global functions. In either case they can be set to be friends of other classes, by using a friend specifier in the class that is admitting them. Such functions can use all attributes of the class which names them as a friend, as if they were themselves members of that class. A friend declaration is essentially a prototype for a member function, but instead of requiring an implementation with the name of that class
Attached by the double colon syntax, a global function or member function of another class provides the match.                          
Questions : 25 What are the differences between public, private, protected, static, transient, final and volatile?         
Answer : 25 Public: Public declared items can be accessed everywhere.
Protected: Protected limits access to inherited and parent classes (and to the class that defines the item).
Private: Private limits visibility only to the class that defines the item.
Static: A static variable exists only in a local function scope,  but it does not lose its value when program execution leaves this scope.
Final: Final keyword prevents child classes from overriding a method by prefixing the definition with final. If the class itself is being defined final then it cannot be extended.
transient: A transient variable is a variable that may not be serialized.
volatile: a variable that might be concurrently modified by multiple threads should be declared volatile. Variables declared to be volatile will not be optimized by the compiler because their value can change at any time. 
Questions : 26 What are the different types of errors in PHP?  
Answer : 26 Three are three types of errors:1. Notices: These are trivial,
non-critical errors that PHP encounters while executing a script – for
example, accessing a variable that has not yet been defined. By default,
such errors are not displayed to the user at all – although, as you will
see, you can change this default behavior.2. Warnings: These are more serious errors – for example, attempting
to include() a file which does not exist. By default, these errors are
displayed to the user, but they do not result in script termination.3. Fatal errors: These are critical errors – for example,
instantiating an object of a non-existent class, or calling a
non-existent function. These errors cause the immediate termination of
the script, and PHP's default behavior is to display them to the user
when they take place.    
Questions : 27 What is the functionality of the function strstr and stristr?          
Answers : 27 strstr Returns part of string from the first occurrence of needle(sub string that we finding out ) to the end of string.
$email= 'sonialouder@gmail.com';
$domain = strstr($email, '@');
echo $domain; // prints @gmail.com
here @ is the needle
stristr is case-insensitive means able not able to diffrenciate between a and A      
Questions : 28 What are the differences between PHP 3 and PHP 4 and PHP 5?          
Answer : 28 There are lot of difference among these three version of php
1>Php3 is oldest version after that php4 came and current version is php5 (php5.3) where php6 have to come
2>Difference mean oldest version have less functionality as compare to new one like php5 have all OOPs concept now where as php3 was pure procedural language constructive like C
In PHP5 1. Implementation of exceptions and exception handling
2. Type hinting which allows you to force the type of a specific argument
3. Overloading of methods through the __call function
4. Full constructors and destructors etc through a __constuctor and __destructor function
5. __autoload function for dynamically including certain include files depending on the class you are trying to create.
6 Finality : can now use the final keyword to indicate that a method cannot be overridden by a child. You can also declare an entire class as final which prevents it from having any children at all.
7 Interfaces & Abstract Classes
8 Passed by Reference :
9 An __clone method if you really want to duplicate an object

Smart Draw
Questions : 52 How can I retrieve values from one database server and store them in other database server using PHP?         
Answer : 52 we can always fetch from one database and rewrite to another. here
is a nice solution of it.$db1 = mysql_connect("host","user","pwd")
mysql_select_db("db1", $db1);
$res1 = mysql_query("query",$db1);$db2 = mysql_connect("host","user","pwd")
mysql_select_db("db2", $db2);
$res2 = mysql_query("query",$db2);At this point you can only fetch records from you previous ResultSet, i.e $res1 – But you cannot execute new query in $db1, even if you supply the link as because the link was overwritten by the new db.so at this point the following script will fail $res3 = mysql_query("query",$db1); //this will failSo how to solve that? take a look below.
$db1 = mysql_connect("host","user","pwd")
mysql_select_db("db1", $db1);
$res1 = mysql_query("query",$db1);
$db2 = mysql_connect("host","user","pwd", true)
mysql_select_db("db2", $db2);
$res2 = mysql_query("query",$db2);
So mysql_connect has another optional boolean parameter which  indicates whether a link will be created or not. as we connect to the  $db2 with this optional parameter set to 'true', so both link will remain live. now the following query will execute successfully. $res3 = mysql_query("query",$db1);   
Questions : 53 List out the predefined classes in PHP?

required language option.        
Questions : 55 What are the difference between abstract class and interface?  
Answer : 55 Abstract class: abstract classes are the class where one or more
Methods are abstract but not necessarily all method has to be abstract.
Abstract methods are the methods, which are declare in its class but not
Define. The definition of those methods must be in its extending class. Interface: Interfaces are one type of class where all the methods are Abstract. That means all the methods only declared but not defined. All the methods must be defined by its implemented class.
Questions : 56 How can we send mail using JavaScript?
Answer : 56 JavaScript does not have any networking capabilities as it is designed to work on client site. As a result we cannot send mails using JavaScript. But we can call the client side mail protocol mailto via JavaScript to prompt for an email to send. this requires the client to approve it.         
Questions : 57 How can we repair a MySQL table?
Answer : 57 The syntex for repairing a MySQL table is REPAIR TABLENAME, [TABLENAME, ], [Quick],[Extended] This command will repair the table specified if the quick is given the MySQL will do a repair of only the index tree if the extended is given it will create index row by row    
Questions : 58 What are the advantages of stored procedures, triggers, indexes?      
Answer : 58 A stored procedure is a set of SQL commands that can be compiled and stored in the server. Once this has been done, clients don't need to keep re-issuing the entire query but can refer to the stored procedure  This provides better overall performance because the query has to be parsed only once, and less information needs to be sent between the server and the client. You can also raise the conceptual level by having libraries of functions in the server. However, stored procedures of course do increase the load on the database server system, as more of the work is done on the server side and less on the client (application)
Side. Triggers will also be implemented. A trigger is effectively a type of stored procedure, one that is invoked when a particular event occurs. For example, you can install a stored procedure that is triggered each time a record is deleted from a transaction table and that stored procedure automatically deletes the corresponding customer from a customer table when all his transactions are deleted. Indexes are used to find rows with specific column values quickly. Without an index, MySQL must begin with the first row and then read through the entire table to find the relevant rows. The larger the table, the more this costs. If the table has an index for the columns in question, MySQL can quickly determine the position to seek to in the middle of the data file without having to look at all the data. If a table has 1,000 rows, this is at least 100 times faster than reading sequentially. If you need to access most of the rows, it is faster to read sequentially, because this minimizes disk seeks.    
Questions : 59 What is the maximum length of a table name, database name, and fieldname in MySQL?  
Answer : 59 The following table describes the maximum length for each type of
identifier. Identifier         Maximum Length(bytes)

take 64 values     
Questions : 61 What are the other commands to know the structure of table using MySQL commands except explain command?         
Answer : 61 describe Table-Name;    
Questions : 62 How many tables will create when we create table, what are they?    
Answer : 62 The '.frm' file stores the table definition.
The data file has a '.MYD' (MYData) extension.
The index file has a '.MYI' (MYIndex) extension,   
Questions : 63 What is the purpose of the following files having extensions 1) .frm 2) .myd 3) .myi? What do these files contain?    
Answer : 63 In MySql, the default table type is MyISAM. Each MyISAM table is stored on disk in three files. The files have names that begin with the table name and have an extension to indicate the file type.
The '.frm' file stores the table definition. The data file has a '.MYD' (MYData) extension. The index file has a '.MYI' (MYIndex) extension,
Questions : 64 What is maximum size of a database in MySQL?        
Answer : 64 If the operating system or file system places a limit on the number
of files in a directory, MySQL is bound by that constraint. The efficiency of the operating system in handling large numbers of files in a directory can place a practical limit on the number of tables in a database. If the time required to open a file in the directory increases significantly as the number of files increases, database performance can be adversely affected. The amount of available disk space limits the number of tables. MySQL 3.22 had a 4GB (4 gigabyte) limit on table size. With the MyISAM storage engine in MySQL 3.23, the maximum table size was increased to 65536 terabytes (2567 – 1 bytes). With this larger allowed table size, the maximum effective table size for MySQL databases is usually determined by operating system constraints on file sizes, not by MySQL internal limits.The InnoDB storage engine maintains InnoDB tables within a tablespace that can be created from several files. This allows a table to exceed the maximum individual file size. The tablespace can include raw disk partitions, which allows extremely large tables. The maximum tablespace size is 64TB. The following table lists some examples of operating system file-size limits. This is only a rough guide and is not intended to be definitive. For the most up-to-date information, be sure to check the documentation specific to your operating system. Operating System File-size LimitLinux 2.2-Intel 32-bit 2GB (LFS: 4GB) Linux 2.4+ (using ext3 filesystem) 4TB
Solaris 9/10 16TB
NetWare w/NSS filesystem 8TB
Win32 w/ FAT/FAT32 2GB/4GB
Win32 w/ NTFS 2TB (possibly larger)
MacOS X w/ HFS+ 2TB   
Questions : 65 Give the syntax of Grant and Revoke commands?      
Answer : 65 The generic syntax for grant is as following
> GRANT [rights] on [database/s] TO [username@hostname] IDENTIFIED BY
[password]
now rights can be
a) All privileges
b) combination of create, drop, select, insert, update and delete etc.We can grant rights on all databse by using *.* or some specific
database by database.* or a specific table by database.table_name
username@hotsname can be either username@localhost, username@hostname
and username@%
where hostname is any valid hostname and % represents any name, the *.*
any condition
password is simply the password of userThe generic syntax for revoke is as following
> REVOKE [rights] on [database/s] FROM [username@hostname]
now rights can be as explained above
a) All privileges
b) combination of create, drop, select, insert, update and delete etc.
username@hotsname can be either username@localhost, username@hostname
and username@%
where hostname is any valid hostname and % represents any name, the *.*
any condition       
                  
Questions : 66 Explain Normalization concept?       
Answer : 66 The normalization process involves getting our data to conform to
three progressive normal forms, and a higher level of normalization cannot be achieved until the previous levels have been achieved (there are actually five normal forms, but the last two are mainly academic and will not be discussed).First Normal FormThe First Normal Form (or 1NF) involves removal of redundant data
from horizontal rows. We want to ensure that there is no duplication of data in a given row, and that every column stores the least amount of information possible (making the field atomic).Second Normal FormWhere the First Normal Form deals with redundancy of data across a horizontal row, Second Normal Form (or 2NF) deals with redundancy of data in vertical columns. As stated earlier, the normal forms are progressive, so to achieve Second Normal Form, your tables must already be in First Normal Form.Third Normal Form I have a confession to make; I do not often use Third Normal Form. In Third Normal Form we are looking for data in our tables that is not fully dependant on the primary key, but dependant on another value in the table 
Questions : 67 How can we find the number of rows in a table using MySQL?

Questions : 70 What are the advantages and disadvantages of Cascading Style Sheets?          
Answer : 70 External Style SheetsAdvantagesCan control styles for multiple documents at once. Classes can be created for use on multiple HTML element types in many documents. Selector and grouping methods can be used to apply styles under complex contextsDisadvantagesAn extra download is required to import style information for each document The rendering of the document may be delayed until the external style sheet is loaded Becomes slightly unwieldy for small quantities of
style definitionsEmbedded Style Sheets Advantages Classes can be created for use on multiple tag types in the document.  Selector and grouping methods can be used to apply styles under complex contexts. No additional downloads necessary to receive style information Disadvantages This method can not control styles for multiple documents at once Inline Styles Advantages Useful for small quantities of style definitions. Can override other style specification methods at the local level so only exceptions need to be listed in conjunction with other style methods Disadvantages Does not distance style information from content (a main goal of
SGML/HTML). Can not control styles for multiple documents at once. Author can not create or control classes of elements to control multiple element types within the document. Selector grouping methods can not be used to create complex element addressing scenarios      
Questions : 71 What type of inheritance that PHP supports?   
Answer : 71 In PHP an extended class is always dependent on a single base class,
that is, multiple inheritance is not supported. Classes are extended
using the keyword 'extends'.   
Questions : 72 What is the difference between Primary Key and Unique key?    
Answer : 72 Primary Key: A column in a table whose values uniquely identify the
rows in the table. A primary key value cannot be NULL. Unique Key: Unique Keys are used to uniquely identify each row in the
table. There can be one and only one row for each unique key value. So
NULL can be a unique key.There can be only one primary key for a table but there can be more
than one unique for a table.    
Question : 73 what is garbage collection? default time ? refresh time?      
Answer : 73 Garbage Collection is an automated part of PHP , If the Garbage Collection process runs, it then analyzes any files in the /tmp for any session files that have not been accessed in a certain amount of time and physically deletes them. Garbage Collection process only runs in the default session save directory, which is /tmp. If you opt to save your sessions in a different directory, the Garbage Collection process will ignore it. the Garbage Collection process does not differentiate between which sessions belong to whom when run. This is especially important note on shared web servers. If the process is run, it deletes ALL files that have not been accessed in the directory. There are 3 PHP.ini variables, which deal with the garbage collector: PHP ini value name default session.gc_maxlifetime 1440 seconds or 24 minutes session.gc_probability 1 session.gc_divisor 100

Questions : 75    What is the difference between GROUP BY and ORDER BY in Sql?     
Answer : 75 ORDER BY [col1],[col2],…,[coln]; Tels DBMS according to what columns
it should sort the result. If two rows will hawe the same value in col1
it will try to sort them according to col2 and so on.GROUP BY
[col1],[col2],…,[coln]; Tels DBMS to group results with same value of
column col1. You can use COUNT(col1), SUM(col1), AVG(col1) with it, if
you want to count all items in group, sum all values or view average 
Questions : 76    What is the difference between char and varchar data types?
Answer : 76 Set char to occupy n bytes and it will take n bytes even if u r
storing a value of n-m bytes
Set varchar to occupy n bytes and it will take only the required space
and will not use the n bytes
eg. name char(15) will waste 10 bytes if we store 'romharshan', if each char
takes a byte
eg. name varchar(15) will just use 5 bytes if we store 'romharshan', if each
char takes a byte. rest 10 bytes will be free.

Questions : 85    how to track user logged out or not? when user is idle ?
Answers : 85         By checking the session variable exist or not while loading th page. As the session will exist longer as till browser closes. The default behaviour for sessions is to keep a session open indefinitely and only to expire a session when the browser is closed. This behaviour can be changed in the php.ini file by altering the line session.cookie_lifetime = 0 to a value in seconds. If you wanted the session to finish in 5 minutes you would set this to session.cookie_lifetime = 300 and restart your httpd server.

Questions : 92 what is cross site scripting? SQL injection?      
Answers : 92 Cross-site scripting (XSS) is a type of computer security vulnerability typically found in web applications which allow code injection by malicious web users into the web pages viewed by other users. Examples of such code include HTML code and client-side scripts. SQL injection is a code injection technique that exploits a security vulnerability occurring in the database layer of an application. The vulnerability is present when user input is either incorrectly filtered for string literal escape characters embedded in SQL statements or user input is not strongly typed and thereby unexpectedly executed         
Questions : 93    what is URL rewriting?        
Answers : 93         Using URL rewriting we can convert dynamic URl to static URL Static URLs are known to be better than Dynamic URLs because of a number of reasons 1. Static URLs typically Rank better in Search Engines. 2. Search Engines are known to index the content of dynamic pages a lot slower compared to static pages. 3. Static URLs are always more friendlier looking to the End Users. along with this we can use URL rewriting in adding variables [cookies] to the URL to handle the sessions.  
Questions : 94    what is the major php security hole? how to avoid?        
Answers : 94        
1. Never include, require, or otherwise open a file with a filename based on user input, without thoroughly checking it first.
2. Be careful with eval() Placing user-inputted values into the eval() function can be extremely dangerous. You essentially give the malicious user the ability to execute any command he or she wishes!
3. Be careful when using register_globals = ON It was originally designed to make programming in PHP easier (and that it did), but misuse of it often led to security holes
4. Never run unescaped queries
5. For protected areas, use sessions or validate the login every time.
6. If you don’t want the file contents to be seen, give the file a .php extension.

Questions : 96    what is MVC? why its been used?
Answers : 96         Model-view-controller (MVC) is an architectural pattern used in software engineering. Successful use of the pattern isolates business logic from user interface considerations, resulting in an application where it is easier to modify either the visual appearance of the application or the underlying business rules without affecting the other. In MVC, the model represents the information (the data) of the application; the view corresponds to elements of the user interface such as text, checkbox items, and so forth; and the controller manages the communication of data and the business rules used to manipulate the data to and from the model. WHY ITS NEEDED IS 1 Modular separation of function 2 Easier to maintain 3 View-Controller separation means: A — Tweaking design (HTML) without altering code B — Web design staff can modify UI without understanding code

Questions : 99    what is PDO ?    
Answers : 99 The PDO ( PHP Data Objects ) extension defines a lightweight, onsistent interface for accessing databases in PHP. if you are using the PDO API, you could switch the database server you used, from say PgSQL to MySQL, and only need to make minor changes to your PHP code. While PDO has its advantages, such as a clean, simple, portable API but its main disadvantage is that it doesn't allow you to use all of the advanced features that are available in the latest versions of MySQL server. For example, PDO does not allow you to use MySQL's support for Multiple Statements. Just need to use below code for connect mysql using PDO
try {
$dbh = new PDO("mysql:host=$hostname;dbname=databasename", $username, $password);
$sql = "SELECT * FROM employee";
foreach ($dbh->query($sql) as $row) {
print $row['employee_name'] .' - '. $row['employee_age'] ;
}
}
catch(PDOException $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();

ans-One of the main advantages of OO programming is its ease of modification; objects can easily be modified and added to a system there by reducing maintenance costs. OO programming is also considered to be better at modeling the real world than is procedural programming. It allows for more complicated and flexible interactions. OO systems are also easier for non-technical personnel to understand and easier for them to participate in the maintenance and enhancement of a system because it appeals to natural human cognition patterns. For some systems, an OO approach can speed development time since many objects are standard across systems and can be reused. Components that manage dates, shipping, shopping carts, etc. can be purchased and easily modified for a specific system.

1. Notices: These are trivial, non-critical errors that PHP encounters while executing a script – for example, accessing a variable that has not yet been defined. By default, such errors are not displayed to the user at all – although you can change this default behavior.
2. Warnings: These are more serious errors – for example, attempting to include() a file which does not exist. By default, these errors are displayed to the user, but they do not result in script termination.
3. Fatal errors: These are critical errors – for example, instantiating an object of a non-existent class, or calling a non-existent function. These errors cause the immediate termination of the script, and PHP’s default behavior is to display them to the user when they take place. Internally, these variations are represented by twelve different error types

ans-The normalization process involves getting our data to conform to three progressive normal forms, and a higher level of normalization cannot be achieved until the previous levels have been achieved (there are actually five normal forms, but the last two are mainly academic and will not be discussed).
First Normal Form
The First Normal Form (or 1NF) involves removal of redundant data from horizontal rows. We want to ensure that there is no duplication of data in a given row, and that every column stores the least amount of information possible (making the field atomic).
Second Normal Form
Where the First Normal Form deals with redundancy of data across a horizontal row, Second Normal Form (or 2NF) deals with redundancy of data in vertical columns. As stated earlier, the normal forms are progressive, so to achieve Second Normal Form, your tables must already be in First Normal Form.
Third Normal Form
I have a confession to make; I do not often use Third Normal Form. In Third Normal Form we are looking for data in our tables that is not fully dependant on the primary key, but dependant on another value in the table
170. What is the maximum length of a table name, a database name, or a field name in MySQL?
ans- Database name: 64 characters
Table name: 64 characters
Column name: 64 characters

171. list of php CMS?    
ans - Drupal, Joomla, PhpBB, Wordpress.
172. list of frameworks in php ?
ans- Zend,CodeIgniter and CackePHP framework.
173. Difference between CMS and Framework.
ans-An application framework is something which we use to build our web application on, I mean we use the framework provided classes, events, methods and create an application. A CMS is already a developed application with a set of features, however most of them are coded in such a way that users can tweak them around and modify the code to fit their own needs. So a framework does not come with a working application, but a CMS comes with one.
174. Http default port no.?
ans- 80
175. Http is stateless or stateful?
ans- stateless.
176. How to unset coockie?
ans- by setting the set cookie method in back date.
    setcookie(name,value,expire,path,domain,secure)
    setcookie("TestCookie",$value, time()+3600*24);
    setcookie ("TestCookie", "", time() - 3600);
177. what is the output ?
    <?php
        $param = "value";
        $value = 10;
        print ${$param};// 10
        print $$param;// 10
        print '$$param';// $$param
    ?>
178. What is the function to upload a file?

    9.Typehinting
190. What is AJAX ?
ans-AJAX = Asynchronous JavaScript and XML.
AJAX is a technique for creating fast and dynamic web pages.
AJAX allows web pages to be updated asynchronously by exchanging small amounts of data with the server behind the scenes. This means that it is possible to update parts of a web page, without reloading the whole page.
AJAX applications are browser- and platform-independent!
All modern browsers support the XMLHttpRequest object (IE5 and IE6 uses an ActiveXObject).
The XMLHttpRequest object is used to exchange data with a server behind the scenes. This means that it is possible to update parts of a web page, without reloading the whole page.
var xmlhttp;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
  {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
  xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
  }
else
  {// code for IE6, IE5
  xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
  }

To handle all modern browsers, including IE5 and IE6, check if the browser supports the XMLHttpRequest object. If it does, create an XMLHttpRequest object, if not, create an ActiveXObject
To send a request to a server, we use the open() and send() methods of the XMLHttpRequest object:
xmlhttp.open("GET","ajax_info.txt",true);
xmlhttp.send();
GET is simpler and faster than POST, and can be used in most cases.
However, always use POST requests when:
    * A cached file is not an option (update a file or database on the server)
    * Sending a large amount of data to the server (POST has no size limitations)
    * Sending user input (which can contain unknown characters), POST is more robust and secure than GET
If you want to send information with the GET method, add the information to the URL:
xmlhttp.open("GET","demo_get2.asp?fname=Henry&lname=Ford",true);
xmlhttp.send();
To POST data like an HTML form, add an HTTP header with setRequestHeader(). Specify the data you want to send in the send() method:
xmlhttp.open("POST","ajax_test.asp",true);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xmlhttp.send("fname=Henry&lname=Ford");
setRequestHeader(header,value) ->Adds HTTP headers to the request.
header: specifies the header name
value: specifies the header value
AJAX stands for Asynchronous JavaScript and XML, and for the XMLHttpRequest object to behave as AJAX, the async parameter of the open() method has to be set to true:
xmlhttp.open("GET","ajax_test.asp",true);
Sending asynchronously requests is a huge improvement for web developers. Many of the tasks performed on the server are very time consuming. Before AJAX, this operation could cause the application to hang or stop.
With AJAX, the JavaScript does not have to wait for the server response, but can instead:
    * execute other scripts while waiting for server response
    * deal with the response when the response ready
Async=true
When using async=true, specify a function to execute when the response is ready in the onreadystatechange event:
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
  {
  if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
    {
    document.getElementById("myDiv").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
    }
  }
xmlhttp.open("GET","ajax_info.txt",true);
xmlhttp.send();
Async=false
To use async=false, change the third parameter in the open() method to false:
Using async=false is not recommended, but for a few small requests this can be ok.
Remember that the JavaScript will NOT continue to execute, until the server response is ready. If the server is busy or slow, the application will hang or stop.
Note: When you use async=false, do NOT write an onreadystatechange function - just put the code after the send() statement:
xmlhttp.open("GET","ajax_info.txt",false);
xmlhttp.send();
document.getElementById("myDiv").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
The onreadystatechange event
-------------------------------
When a request to a server is sent, we want to perform some actions based on the response.
The onreadystatechange event is triggered every time the readyState changes.
The readyState property holds the status of the XMLHttpRequest.
Three important properties of the XMLHttpRequest object:
In the onreadystatechange event, we specify what will happen when the server response is ready to be processed.
When readyState is 4 and status is 200, the response is ready:
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
  {
  if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
    {
    document.getElementById("myDiv").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
    }
  }
if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
  {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari
  xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
  }
else
  {// code for IE6, IE5
  xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
  }
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function()
  {
  if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200)
    {
    document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText;
    }
  }
xmlhttp.open("GET","gethint.php?q="+str,true);
xmlhttp.send();
91. What is main strength of Ajax ?
ans- AJAX does not refresh or reload the whole page as because Ajax uses asynchronous technology.
In a word, a program does not wait for response after requesting an asynchronous call whereas synchronous does so.
192. How session works?
ans- Nearly every PHP application uses sessions. This article takes a detailed look at implementing a secure session management mechanism with PHP. Following a fundamental introduction to HTTP, the challenge of maintaining state, and the basic operation of cookies, I will step through simple and effective methods that can be used to increase the security and reliability of your stateful PHP applications.
It is a common misconception that PHP provides a certain level of security with its native session management features. On the contrary, PHP simply provides a convenient mechanism. It is up to the developer to provide the complete solution, and as you will see, there is no one solution that is best for everyone.
Statelessness
HTTP is a stateless protocol. This is because there is nothing within the protocol that requires the browser to identify itself during each request, and there is also no established connection between the browser and the web server that persists from one page to the next. When a user visits a web site, the user's browser sends an HTTP request to the web server, which in turn sends an HTTP response in reply. This is the extent of the communication, and it represents a complete HTTP transaction.
Because the web relies on HTTP for communication, maintaining state in a web application can be particularly challenging for developers. Cookies are an extension of HTTP that were introduced to help provide stateful HTTP transactions, but privacy concerns have prompted many users to disable support for cookies. State information can be passed in the URL, but accidental disclosure of this information poses serious security risks. In fact, the very nature of maintaining state requires that the client identify itself, yet the security-conscious among us know that we should never trust information sent by the client.
Despite all of this, there are elegant solutions to the problem of maintaining state. There is no perfect solution, of course, nor is there one solution that can satisfy everyone's needs. This article introduces some techniques that can reliably provide statefulness as well as defend against session-based attacks such as session hijacking. Along the way, you will learn how cookies really work, what PHP sessions do, and what is required to hijack a session.
193.What is interface?
ans- PHP does not support multiple inheritance directly, to implement this we need Interface. It is much similar to Interface of Java.
In PHP, signature of the method are declared in the Interface body, and the body part of the method is implemented in derived class. Variables are declared as constant and it can not be changed in the child classes.
We use implement keyword to extend this kind of class, at the same time we can implement more than one interface and one interface can be implemented by another interface.
All methods declared in an interface must be public and the variables should be constant.
This is mandatory that we must declare the body part of the method in the derived class otherwise an error message will be generated.
Example:
<?php
interface Inter{
const a="This is constant value";
public function disp(); }
class A implements Inter{
function show(){
echo self::a."<br/>";}
public function disp(){
echo "Inside the disp function";}}
$a=new A();
$a->show();
$a->disp();
?>
Output:
This is constant value
Inside the disp function
194. Difference between Http and Ftp ?
ans- 1
FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol.
HTTP stands for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol
2
FTP, is a protocol used to upload files from a workstation to a FTP server or download files from a FTP server to a workstation.
HTTP, is a protocol used to transfer files from a Web server onto a browser in order to view a Web page that is on the Internet.
3
When ftp appears in a URL it means that the user is connecting to a file server and not a Web server and that some form of file transfer is going to take place.
When http appears in a URL it means that the user is connecting to a Web server and not a file server. The files are transferred but not downloaded, therefore not copied into the memory of the receiving device.
4
FTP is a two-way system as files are transferred back and forth between server and workstation.
HTTP is a one-way system as files are transported only from the server onto the workstation's browser.
5
FTP, where entire files are transferred from one device to another and copied into memory,
HTTP only transfers the contents of a web page into a browser for viewing.
6
FTP file uploaded is used in cases when the file size is more than 70 MB
HTTP upload is used for smaller files.
7
FTP uses an FTP client server and an FTP client.
HTTP is used for all web [ages i.e. it is the standard protocol to transmit hyperlinked documents and files. It is often used in conjunction with HTML.
8
FTP was the original non-GUI file transfer program and could be run from a command line interface like MS-DOS.
HTTP is associated with a browser file transfer program like Internet Explorer.
