Here is my stab at it. One person described it as the opposite of OO.
So something similar to ->
<?php
do_this() {
// do this code
}
do_that() {
// do that code
}
if (isset( $_GET['foo'] )) {
do_this();
} else {
do_that();
}
?>
would be considered "procedural code".
If Im wrong I stand corrected....
