In this short article I would like to share with you a sample program that I wrote using PHP I called this program Age Solver. The purpose of this program will determine the age of the person by asking the person to enter the month, day and year which the person is being born. It will return the current age of the person once the user select the check age button. In addition I also add clear button which enables the user to erase the previous values and provide new birth date values in our text box.
If you have some questions please send me an email at jakerpomperada@yahoo.com and jakerpomperada@gmail.com.
People here in the Philippines who wish to contact me can reach me at my mobile number 09173084360.
