@6: Use a PHP Editor with debugging/code evaluation. Zend has one (most
popular I think, for windows anyway), which is quite expensive for
anyone other than a commercial programmer (approx 300 dollar). I prefer
using PHPEdit (www.waterproof.fr), which is FREE for personal use. You
do have to request a license file though, but I got it without a hassle.
@9: With forms you can use the following:
<FORM method="GET or POST" action="script.php">
[...]
</FORM>
Then get the submitted info from the $_GET or $_POST array.
If you have a form field called NAME and you used POST as a method (I
prefer POST in most cases, allows more data to be transmitted) it's
stored in $_POST["NAME"] afterwards.
Do NOT trust form data, always validate it first if you use it for
serious purposes. People can easily fake input.
Validation in the PHP script of course.
Another way to parse data from script 1 to script 2 is by using
sessions. Read the PHP Manual on how to properly use sessions.
The other questions I cannot answer I think.
