Introduction
Back in the days of classic ASP, if you were building a database-driven web site, your choice was either to invest a lot of money to get a copy of Microsoft SQL Server (or some othe
enterprise-ready database) or invest a lot of time finding a way to deal with the performance and scalability limitations of Microsoft Access. Luckily these days there’s another viable alternative: MySQL.

A PHP switch statement is almost like an IF statement except it is good to use a switch statement when you want to compare many results on the same variable.
Example with integer.
<?php
switch ($i):
case 0:
echo "i = 0";
break;
case 1:
echo "i = 1";
break;
case 2:
echo "i = 2";
break;
default:
echo "i is not equal to 0, 1 or 2";
endswitch;
?> Example with a string.
<?php
switch ($i) {
case "eagle:
echo "i is eagle";
break;
case "hawk":
echo "i is hawk";
break;
case "blue jay":
echo "i is blue jay";
break;
}

There are over 700 functions available in php and below I will show you how to create you own function. Functions all start with the word function(). Here are some things to remember
<?php function fullname($firstname){ // Start your function with an appropriate function name
// Put your code
$last_name = “Smith”;
$full_name= $first_name . ” ” . $last_name;
return $full_name;
} // end your function
<?PHP echo fullname(Joe); ?> //Calling this function will display Joe Smith

So you want to separate your string using explode or join your string using implode in vb.net? Explode/implode are functions of the php environment and do not exist in asp.net therefore you must use the split() function to get your results for explode and join() for implode.
Split() Example
mystring = “hello;sir;how are you”;
Join() Example
Dim JoinArray(3)
JoinArray(0) = "Welcome"
JoinArray(1) = "to"
JoinArray(2) = "Web Infinite"
Dim strSentence as String
strSentence = join(JoinArray)
Result
strSentence would equal to “Welcome to Web Infinite”
