The Globe was owned by many actors, who (except for one) were also shareholders in the Lord Chamberlain’s Men. Two of the six Globe shareholders, Richard Burbage and his brother Cuthbert Burbage, owned double shares of the whole, or 25% each; the other four men, Shakespeare, John Heminges, Augustine Phillips, and Thomas Pope, owned a single share, or 12.5%. (Originally William Kempe was intended to be the seventh partner, but he sold out his share to the four minority sharers, leaving them with more than the originally planned 10%). These initial proportions changed over time, as new sharers were added. Shakespeare’s share diminished from 1/8 to 1/14, or roughly 7%, over the course of his career.
The Globe was built in 1599 using timber from an earlier theatre, The Theatre, that had been built by Richard Burbage’s father, James Burbage, in Shoreditch in 1576. The Burbages originally had a 21-year lease of the site on which The Theatre was built, they dismantled The Theatre beam by beam and transported it over the Thames to reconstruct it as The Globe.

Create a file named hello.php and put it in your web server’s root directory (DOCUMENT_ROOT) with the following content:
Example #1 Our first PHP script: hello.php
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo “<p>Hello World</p>”; ?>
</body>
</html>
Use your browser to access the file with your web server’s URL, ending with the /hello.php file reference. When developing locally this URL will be something like http://localhost/hello.php or http://127.0.0.1/hello.php but this depends on the web server’s configuration. If everything is configured correctly, this file will be parsed by PHP and the following output will be sent to your browser:

Controlling the flow of logic is a fundamental part of any program, including a PHP script, but what does the phrase actually mean? Logic flow refers to the decision making process whereby you choose which actions to take under which circumstances. Now let’s say that is ordinary English!
Think for the moment of the process of filling a bath tub with water. Here’s a (greatly) simplified version of the decision making process involved:
- Put some water in
- Check the depth
- Deep enough then quit
- Not deep enough continue
- Check the temperature
- Too hot, then add some cold water and go back to “Check the depth”
- Too cold, then add some hot water and go back to “Check the depth”
- Add more water
- Go back to “Check the depth”
