Is there any way to edit php without code?
So, I am a designer, now turned web-marketer… It has been requested of me to edit our corporate website, which is written in php. I only have MINOR html experience. Is there any way to edit php without code?

Nope.
Because it’s more of a scripting language than a programming language like BASIC or C and than a mark up language like XHTML.
PHP isn’t too hard to learn though (or so I’ve heard)
You can still edit the HTML..
hire someone qualified ;-)
As @patg7590 says, it’s be a good idea to hire someone to do the edits. If it’s minor, it shouldn’t cost too much. If the edits you need to do are static HTML, it might not be that difficult to do it yourself, but if it’s all dynamically created content, don’t even try, just hire someone.
yeah, coders need jobs too :-P
Yeah, well I was the hire, but thanks for the help.
Quite qualified , but thanks for the concern, lol…. and yes I have the ability to hire-out, but its much more fun to challenge myself if/when its possible… :)
@Georgia_Printco – Good way to look at it. Get a couple good books, bookmark www.w3schools.com and consider this your opportunity to get paid learn PHP/mySQL! I’ve been thrown into the fire many time here at my job, only to come out with some very valuable knowledge and experiences.
@Georgia_Printco If you are pretty good in HTML and can actually code a whole website with out templates, then i can assure you PHP can learned fairly quickly, Mysql sucks setting up on a server but isn’t nearly as hard to code as it is to setup.
A PHP web page will likely contain PHP code along with HTML markup in one file. The PHP will deal with the logic while the HTML deals with the style and structure. The details are dependent strictly on every individual page, but if you’re only changing the layout you might be able to make all the changes you need with something like DreamWeaver.
