PHP for the Web is a terrific introduction on how to use modern PHP effectively. While there is a lot of material out there about building applications with PHP, most of them focus on using a framework like Laravel or Symfony. By working with pure PHP, you will be able to focus on the core ideas instead of how a particular framework implements them.

In this course, you will learn how to use multiple web technologies like POST requests, forms, sessions, and redirects to build a CRUD application with an authentication system.

By the end, you will have all the ingredients at your disposal to go out and build stunning, dynamic PHP web applications.

# The list of tours is never empty
There’s a slight issue. Try deleting all the tours. Eventually, we would expect to see the message “There are no tours (yet).” again. The code that produces this message is:

<?php
// ...
if (count($toursData) === 0) {
    ?><p>There are no tours (yet).</p><?php
}

When you think about it, `$toursData` is not empty; it just contains tours that have been deleted.
So `count($toursData)` will never be 0 even when all the tours have been deleted.

## Filtering out deleted tours
The solution is to filter out deleted tours before looping over `$toursData`.
One way to do that is like this:
