What is PHP?
PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML. If you are new to PHP and want to get some idea of how it works, try the introductory tutorial. After that, check out the online manual, and the example archive sites and some of the other resources available in the links section.
What is MARC, anyway?
The Mailing list ARChives (MARC) homed at 10 East (formerly the AIMS group, made up of the people who used to be Progressive Computer Concepts, Inc--we're thinking of starting a pool on what their next name will be...) is a project we devised, developed, and (try to!) maintain in our spare time. It is an RDBMS (MySQL, to be exact) driven database of mailing list messages, viewable and browsable by list, thread, author, or searchable via a full-text search engine. Its interface is no-frills but highly functional, designed to be useable even over slow links or with text-only browsers like lynx.
