Description :
PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages. PHP also offers built-in database integration for several commercial and non-commercial database management systems, so writing a database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts. The mod_php module enables the Apache Web server to understand and process the embedded PHP language in Web pages.

A few 3com network cards can't connect to the network after the update to Fedora Core 1. This problem is caused by kudzu (Red Hat's hardware detection program).

The temporary workaround is to disable kudzu at boot time. For more information about this issue see this bug report.
