PHP is a rather loose language that is fairly upfront. Functions, classes, and variables are easy to manipulate and use. It has very similar syntax in comparison to higher level languages such as C, allowing the branching of more complicated languages (starting with a watered down language like PHP). The PHP engine parses scripts quickly, and has a very elaborate error system, detailing why an error occured, where it started or ended, and what caused it (if applicable). Easy INI settings allow you to surpress these errors when it's time to put your website to professional use (the INI settings can control many other options, at that). PHP has MySQL, Oracle, and many other major database support. Extensions can be added on to further the classes and functions a programmer is capable of performing. You can even write your own scripts and share them with the world with the PHP Extensive Application Repository (or, PEAR for short). However, some people find the PHP language complicated -- or contrary, too loose. Programmers with little experience may find complex source too difficult to understand, and they may never end up understanding it. Programmers with higher levels of experience may find PHP's syntax to be too lose; for example, comparing an integer to string that has an integer in it (two completely different types of variables) would cause errors in higher level languages, stating that the comparison is invalid. PHP allows this sort of syntax, and (in a sense) converts the string into an integer.

Ultimately PHP is a programming language and MySQL is a database language. Using PHP with MySQL is a nice combination with built-in support and the simplicity of it all. However, there aren't a lot of disadvantages of using PHP with a database, it just allows for better data organization and whatnot. There are definitely advantages and disadvantages to using a database other than MySQL (such as MongoDB or PostgreSQL).

It is an open-source language thatβs why it is maintained by a large group of PHP developers and the support community is more than other languages. It is easy to use because it follows the syntax of βCβ. Those who familiar with C language can easily understand PHP. It has powerful library support you can easily find functional modules. It has built-in database functionality. These are some points that consider as core advantages of PHP.
