Ever wanted to see who was responsible for giving us the server-side scripting language, PHP? Thought so. So here’s a handy tip for displaying the names of the folks who were responsible, right from any PHP script.

To view the PHP credits simply add the following URL variable to the end of the URL of a PHP page:

?=PHPB8B5F2A0-3C92-11d3-A3A9-4C7B08C10000

This is also a good way to see if the website uses PHP, especially when the file extensions have been changed from the default *.php. Here’s an example,

http://www.domain.com/page.php?=PHPB8B5F2A0-3C92-11d3-A3A9-4C7B08C10000

As if that wasn’t exciting enough, you can also grab the PHP and Zend logos seperately by appending the following variables respectively:

?=PHPE9568F34-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42
?=PHPE9568F35-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42
