It was originally 'Personal Home Page Tools' in 1995 at first release but was changed to stand for Hypertext Preprocessor. I don't know where the P went either, but it did ORIGINALLY mean something.

If you actually read anything on the php site, you'd know that PHP started as an old perl hack. Then it went to Personal Home Page/Form Interpreter or something (PHP/FI)
As PHP evolved the name stuck, and simply became a recursive acronym (PHP Hyptertext Processor)

It's PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor.

It's a fucking <b>RECURSIVE ARCONYM</b>. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursive_acronym

It's like asking what GNU stands for. It stands for <b>GNU's Not Unix</b>.

Because, as usual W3 is wrong.

Personal Home Pages was the orignal name of the project, and, it was written in Perl. A perl script took a .php page and basically evalled what it found in the <? tags ?>.

Like the fact that it contains an ad hoc, informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Perl?
