Hi, I recently got a Raspberry Pi to accompany me in my noob adventures through the learning of PHP. However i was wondering wether it would be possible to set my raspberry pi up such that it could run 24/7 as a server which parses php that i have written on other devices. E.g. so that i could write a plain php document on a computer without php or apache installed and then send that document to the pi. The pi would then display the code on a webpage as it was intented to be seen. This would be useful as it would allow me to code in school and on other devices without having to go through the effort of installing apache +python (i would therefor also appreciate being able to put the documents on the pi without being connected to a local network, e.g. on holiday in another country). If it is indeed possible to do such a thing i would hugely appreciate advice/a guide as to how i could go about doing it! Kind regards Nub Nub Alex

Hi Everyone, I wanted to know if there is anyway to define classes and functions on one site and then have multiple other sites connect. I want to do this so that I can encrypt information on these other sites with a class that I have made on another site. I tried require but the remote script executes and then returns the result - it doesn't allow me to access or use the functions. If you have any ideas/suggestions/solutions I'm open to them but it looks like I'm going to need to reevaluate how I'm going to do this. Thanks for reading!

I would like to develop a system that makes remote reading of the result of some search sites. These results are paginated and many sites use ajax to load pages. How can I accomplish this system with php? example of a site search page result: http://busca.submarino.com.br/busca.php?q=celular&sessao=4b712361eee996720660b5d6bde5dfc1f22066c9&idbusca=c9aeb969a4e7fb45bbbf152c85f1234cd768f5e7 As you can see at the bottom of the page, there is some javascript attached to the pagination link. Can anyone help with some idea? Thanks

Hi... A scenario: A client has their own database. I don't know what what kind of database just yet. Waiting to hear back. But they want put a csv file or some kind of mysql dump file outside of their firewall every friday for us to use to populate a mysql database on a different server where their website is hosted - where we are building their website. Can this be done feasibly? How would we do this?
