Abstrakt: Over the course of more than 10 years teaching PHP, we have come to recognise that many students find the architecture of web applications confusing and in particular often confuse the programming constructs to read user data from the front-end with those used to obtain data from the back-end database. Our EPHP software aims to address these problems via a visual simulation of the operations of a PHP-based web application. A prototype has been used already by students on our second-year unit "Developing for the Internet," and feedback via a survey obtained. We discuss points for enhancement identified from the survey and our own observations of the students using the software. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
