Product Description

Product Description

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 (due out in 2008) and MySQL 5 (available now). 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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Tutorial, Jun 4 2003
By Sherman E. Wilcox (Albuquerque, NM USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I'm a newbie to both PHP and MySQL on Mac OS X. I'm learning from this book and from the PHP/MySQL for Dummies. This is the better book. It has lots of good information, clear writing, and easy to follow tutorials. The graphic display of PHP code is very easy to follow: as the author modifies scripts to teach new concepts, the new code is presented in red in the code listings. In just a few days I've gone from knowing nothing about PHP and MySQL to writing my own PHP code. If you're trying to learn how to use PHP and MySQL this is the book to get (along with the MySQL users manual).

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but not "handy", Mar 4 2006
By corey (Canada) - See all my reviews
I picked up this book when I was setting up my first dynamic website. The author is obviously quite well versed in the subject matter and does a fair enough job of laying out the basics. Unfortunately, I was hoping to come away with a book that I could later use as a reference for specifics of command syntax, explanations of functional applications / limitations, etc. and the book just doesn't lend itself to this. The author also doesn't go into any detail on object-oriented programming or its structure in php, which is a must if you're using one of the popular open-source packages like Drupal. (www.drupal.org)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book the aspiring php coder!, Nov 28 2006
By A. Hinton - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Larry Ullman starts off by teaching his readers the basics of php and mysql like any good teacher would. He then guides you through many different concepts of php and mysql in great detail and even shows you how to create 3 real life applications using what you have just learned. Unlike what other reviewers have said i find this book quite handy and a good reference to look back to when you need to know about certain elements of php or mysql. I would highly recommend this book of you are someone looking to learn php and mysql in a way that you will learn and retain the information!
