LAMP – Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP used for running websites.

After many years, I now have a working LAMP website. This wordpress blog doesn’t really count, because it’s already fully packaged. I tried looking for the wordpress equivalent of a photo gallery, but I couldn’t find one. When you can’t find something off the self, you have to build it yourself. The skeleton of a gallery is working now. The webserver is running Slackware Linux on my PII 350 MHz desktop computer. It wasn’t too hard to set it up after I read the tutorials on w3schools. I used the XHTML and CSS tutorials for another website, so that helped knowing what to make the PHP output. Another useful tool is the W3C Markup Validation service.
