Which technology is commonly used to implement dynamic websites as a scripting language?

• A. JavaScript
• B. CSS
• C. PHP
• D. HTML

Answer: (C)

Dynamic websites are created by code that runs on the server to generate content for each request. PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development, so it can process form data, interact with databases, manage sessions, and output HTML that is customized for each user. It’s typically embedded in HTML with special tags and executed by the server, producing the page you see in the browser.

JavaScript, while a scripting language, mainly runs in the client’s browser to add interactivity after the page has loaded. HTML is the markup that structures content, and CSS handles styling, but neither is a scripting language used to generate dynamic pages on the server.
