>Is php Interpreted language or Compiled Language like C or C++.
Beeing compiled or interpreted is not property of language but of
implementation. For almost all languages you have implementations from pure
interpreters to pure compilers, and often some blends of the two. For PHP i
believe the first implementations were pure interpreters, and nowdays Zend
engine is compiler that generates some form of opcode that gets interpreted.
