About FAQ's: PHP manual, chapter 44, question 2:
"What does PHP stand for?
PHP stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor. This confuses many people because the first word of the
acronym is the acronym."
I simply don't buy it! The best guess yet was "Personal Homepage Programming
(language)".
If you really insist, that the P stands for PHP, then you are failing to explain why it's a P
and not a "Z" or "Q" or "4". Please, the name is fine, but the
explanation (or "excuse"?) is lousy! I simply don't buy it!
Kind regards,
H.H.
