正如我们前面提到的，该应用程序使用一个脚本控制所有操作。该脚本叫做index.php，如程序清单29-2所示。该脚本比较长，我们逐段详细介绍。

这个脚本使用一个事件处理的方法。它包含对于每个事件应该调用哪个函数的知识或逻辑。在这种情况下，事件是由用户点击站点内不同的按钮触发的，每一个按钮对应一种动作。大多数按钮都是由display_button函数产生的，但是如果用户点击的按钮是提交按钮时，则是调用display_form_button函数。这些函数都在output_fns.php中。这些都转至表单的URL：
index.php?action=log-out
当调用index.php时，action变量值决定哪一个事件处理程序被触发。
该脚本由如下所示的4个主要部分组成：
1）在将页面标题发送到浏览器之前要做一些必要的处理，例如，开始一个会话，执行用户选择的动作所必须的预处理操作，并确定页面标题的内容。
2）为用户选择的动作处理和发送适当的标题和菜单条。
3）选择要执行哪一块代码，取决于用户所选的动作。不同的动作将触发不同的函数调用。
4）发送页面的页脚。
如果粗略地看一下代码，会发现这四个部分都用注释作了标记。
为了完全理解脚本程序，让我们来真正使用这个站点。
