Problem How to get started in PHP-GTK2?
As with many other programming languages, let start with this simple yet complete "hello world!" PHP-GTK2 example as shown below:

Solution Do take some time to understand this simple yet complete "hello world!" PHP-GTK2 script.
Once you understand this script, you are on your way to picking up other widgets one by one and add onto this script.
Sample Code 1 2 3 4 5
| <?php $window = new GtkWindow(); $window->connect_simple('destroy', array('Gtk','main_quit')); $label = new GtkLabel("hello world!"); $window->add($label);
|

Explanation
new GtkWindow() creates a new window.
connect('destroy', array('Gtk','main_quit')) ensures a clean exit when you close the window. This basically says call Gtk::main_quit() when the user close the window.
new GtkLabel("hello world!") creates the text string as label.
- And we use
$window->add to place the label in the window.
$window->show_all() shows the window and all its contents.
Gtk::main() - GTK takes over and starts waiting for events (e.g. mouse or keyboard input).
