    So ... the P in PHP ... stands for PHP.

    I've always thought it stood for Personal Home Page ... and so did several of the programmer types around me. One beardy-sandal wearing fellow grunted self referencing recursive algorithms ... but I sprayed deodorant at him and he went away. :cool:

    It originally stood for that, but since PHP3.0 was released (1998) it's been PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor

    Yup. It's a place called Reunion in France, which is off the east coast of Africa. It is a full part of France (it is a department of France, has same status as rest of France, they use the Euro and all)


    So your question...

    Horseshoes are meant to have the two ends pointing upwards because if they point downwards then the good luck drains out of them!
    Do I win a car?
