Overview

It hasn't taken Web developers long to discover that when it comes to creating dynamic, database-driven Web sites, MySQL and PHP provide a winning open source combination. Add this book to the mix, and there's no limit to the powerful, interactive Web sites that developers can create. With step-by-step instructions, complete scripts, and expert tips to guide readers, veteran author and database designer Larry Ullman gets right down to business: After grounding readers with separate discussions of first the scripting language (PHP) and then the database program (MySQL), he goes on to cover security, sessions and cookies, and using additional Web tools, with several sections devoted to creating sample applications. This guide is indispensable for intermediate- to advanced level Web designers who want to replace their static sites with something dynamic. In this edition, the bulk of the new material covers the latest versions of both technologies: PHP 6 and MySQL 5. The book's publication date is likely to beat the official release of PHP 6, making it one of the first books available on the subject.

    Excellent book for learning PHP

    Larry Ullman is a great teacher, and I have learned a great deal from this book. If you are new to programming with PHP, this book will have you up to speed within a few days. In addition, there is a website associated with the book where you can interact directly with the author is you have any problems, and he is always willing to help his readers.
