History of php
Rasmus Lerdorf started developing PHP in 1994. A lot of CGI programs were written by him which
were used for maintenance of his personal website. He modified these programs to make them work
with web forms and to interact with databases. The implementation of this modification was termed
as “Personal Home Page/Forms Interpreter” (PHP/FI). The first version of PHP/FI was made available
to the world by Lerdorf in June 1995 for Bug Reporting and Code Improvement. Features like Form
Handling, Variables similar to Perl and HTML embedding were present in this first version.
