Several of these, including the Template package and the database-independent query API, are fully integrated into examples and thoroughly described in the text. For instance, every site that allows updates must handle the possibility of multiple users accessing data at the same time. Good design is emphasized, such as dividing logic from presentation. It shows the correct way to handle errors in user input so that a site looks professional. Topics include:Installation and configuration of Apache, MySQL, and PHP on Unix®, Windows®, and Mac OS® X systemsIntroductions to PHP, SQL, and MySQL administrationSession management, including the use of a custom database for improved efficiencyUser input validation, security, and authenticationThe PEAR repository, plus details on the use of PEAR DB and Template classesProduction of PDF reports.

That's the point Hugh Williams and David Lane make in Web Database Applications with PHP & MySQL, which combines language tutorials with application design advice to yield a comprehensive picture of its subjects at a reasonable price. Though the code listings themselves aren't remarkably well commented, the authors do a commendable job of explaining in prose what the code is up to.Case in point: The ever-essential task of using PHP to open a connection to a MySQL database, submit a query to that database, receive a response, and format the returned rows, if any. . Tutorials in both subjects begin with the basics and proceed throug
would be a great textbook A thorough and well-written cookbook for building a web shopping cart using PHP and MySQL. The authors assume some programming background but also cover fundamentals of database design and software engineering. A great choice for someone relatively new to applications programming.If you're an experienced programmer looking for a more streamlined reference manual, I recommend O'Reilly's "Programming PHP" instead.. Railgun said Great beginning to end, but still not The Bible. I have to agree with Dave Hilton's review. I love PHP, MySQL and ORA, but as good as this book was to give you a beginning to end HOW TO of creating a database backed web site with the two, it's far from a definitive guide. I'm still waiting for a Canonical PHP book and definitely for a decent MySQL book. There really isn't anything in this book you can't learn from PHP.net, MySQL.org and DevShed, but if you want a nice and compact "course" type book, this one will do. You'll still need to reference PHP.net.Unfortunately, after taking a Database Design class in Oracle, I've become a lot more aware of MySQ. Great Book I purchased this book along with Programming PHP [Lerdorf and Tatroe], and i have no regrets, this book covers every aspect of application web development, a very simple way, and references a lot of resources to get deeper knowledge, it encourages and motivates you to choose PHP as a WEB Application Language.This book is a must !!!
