What resources or documentation would you recommend for PHP beginners looking to learn more about file handling and form processing in PHP?

For PHP beginners looking to learn more about file handling and form processing, I would recommend starting with the official PHP documentation on file handling (https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.filesystem.php) and form processing (https://www.php.net/manual/en/tutorial.forms.php). Additionally, online tutorials and courses on platforms like Codecademy, Udemy, or YouTube can provide practical examples and hands-on experience with these concepts. 

<?php
// Example of file handling in PHP
$file = fopen("example.txt", "w") or die("Unable to open file!");
$txt = "Hello, World!";
fwrite($file, $txt);
fclose($file);

// Example of form processing in PHP
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    $name = $_POST["name"];
    $email = $_POST["email"];
    
    echo "Hello, $name! Your email is $email.";
}
?>

<form method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
    Name: <input type="text" name="name"><br>
    Email: <input type="text" name="email"><br>
    <input type="submit">
</form>
