Product Description: When static HTML pages no longer cut it, you need to step up to dynamic, database-driven sites that represent the future of the Web. In PHP and MySQL for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual QuickPro Guide, the author of best-selling guides to both the database program (MySQL) and the scripting language (PHP) returns to cover the winning pair in tandem—the way users work with them today to build dynamic sites using Open Source tools. Using step-by-step instructions, clearly written scripts, and expert tips to ease the way, author Larry Ullman discusses PHP and MySQL separately before going on to cover security, sessions and cookies, and using additional Web tools, with several sections devoted to creating sample applications. A companion Web site includes source code and demonstrations of techniques used in the volume. If you're already at home with HTML, you'll find this volume the perfect launching pad to creating dynamic sites with PHP and MySQL.

PHP 6 and MySQL 5 for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual QuickPro GuideI have just completed this book and will now be moving on to apply what I learned on my website. If you are familiar with HTML/XHTML then this is the book for you, this book is well written and is good for both beginners and advanced programmers alike. I recommend it to anyone who wants to learn PHP6 & MYSQL 5.

This author is trying to make money off of by selling a misrepresentation that PHP 6 was due out soon. It claims that PHP 6 was due out in 2008 but there was never a set release date or even target for PHP 6. In fact most of the features for PHP 6 has been ported to a version of PHP 5. This book is going to be a complete misrepresentation of the final product that PHP 6 will be. In fact there are more features in the upcoming php 5.3 that are hugely important (namespaces and closures) that were implemented in php 5.3 before they were even a twinkle in this books' eyes. I think I'll write a PHP 7 book full of bs and sell it for more money.

I have been trying to implement a simple to moderately complex PHP/mysql/website for some time and have searched all over the 'net' looking for simple practical ways to implement such a web site with PHP and mysql. I have purchased several books, and have tried demo versions of software that 'build' sites for you, but my lack of expertise in PHP makes it impossible to edit or customize the generated sites for my purpose. For newbies (and not OOP geeks) looking to learn PHP, this book is excellent and well written and will probably be my last 'shot' at building the site that currently exists only in my mind. But as the 1 to 3 star reviews point out, it is definitely a learning tool, not a reference book. Also, it does take time to get used to the two column format and the small print - but the effort is well worth it. (You can download all the scripts and view them in a 'php text editor' of your choice - that definitely helps when reading the book). And the scripts have lots of ... Read More
