PHP Web 2.0 using Zend and Smarty
First of all. What is Web 2.0? Everyone has a definition. The important point is how does THIS BOOK define it. The author of this book defines Web 2.0 as sites that use: standard compliant HTML/CSS, use AJAX, share data using web services, and incorporate social networking tools. This book seeks to show the reader how to use the four components in conjunction with PHP. The cover of the ...

This was my first PHP/MySQL book
I purchased this book because I needed to use PHP and MySQL for a project at work. I never had any exposure to either before reading this book. By using this book and the w3schools website I was able to successful build a meager database and have a fully functioning php front end. It was very pleasing to see the project come to fruition and I have this book to thank for that. I used it mainly ...

Best for getting up to speed fast using PHP 6 and MySQL 5
I'll keep it brief since "Customer" nailed it with their review already, but wanted to say with this book and the free manuals on PHP and MySQL I was up to speed and developed my first dynamic web site in a matter of weeks, reading and learning part-time at night. I wanted to go a bit further than just basic PHP and MySQL as part of a current personal project; researching and learning about ...

Excellent PHP Primer and Quick Reference
I read through this in a couple evenings. It highlighted some PHP functions which I should be using to streamline my code. It also overviews available PHP extensions such as database interfaces and PDF and graphics libraries. Nice to have a summary all in one place and right at hand.

The ONLY Book You Will Ever Need To Master PHP/MySQL
I cracked open this book knowing only basic HTML. About halfway through it, I was a website developer. By the end of the book, I was a website professional with highly sought after skills. This book is not only written well, but is written in a manner that kept my short-spanned attention all the way through with plenty of momentum. Possibly the only computer book I have ever read all the ...

Best material I have seen on regular expressions
I went through several books and online tutorials and never found anything that did a good comprehensive job of explaining regular expressions. This book does. If you are having trouble "getting it", I highly encourage reading this book. You will be extremely enlightened even after the first few chapters.

'Wicked Cool PHP: Real-World Scripts That Solve Difficult Problems' is a fantastic PHP cookbook that is written exactly the way I like books to be written: - it's fun to read and learn from - content is broken up logically at the right points - layout and design is a joy on the eyes and brain - length is around 200 pages which is within the 2-3 (hundred) range that I like most books to be ...

Excellent Book!
Excellent book. Well structured, with clear explanations, and no extra wording. I have been looking for a guide to understand how Drupal works and how it can be tuned and I have found what I needed in this book. Before this one I read another generalistic book about Drupal that did not manage to add any value in more than 200 pages of reading... what a difference! Congratulations. Keep up with ...

The very best programming/instructional book I've ever read
I have read many books on programming. While I have gleaned some value from just about every book, the page-count-to-learning ratio hasn't been great. And on a few occasions, I hit a roadblock where I simply wasn't getting what author was telling me I should be completely proficient with at that moment...anyone else experience that?? Makes me feel like a coloring-by-the-numbers code monkey. I've ...

Grea book for beginners and intermediates.
AJAX and PHP: Building Responsive Web Applications This is a great book for beginners as well as intermediate users of AJAX. I have about 5 years of experience with PHP and 7 with Javascript and I had none with AJAX. I read a few tutorials online about AJAX and after reading some of this book, I love it. This book is a great start with AJAX, especially if you are a PHP programmer like ...

Programming background? This book is for you!
I was looking for a decent introduction to PHP, and stumbled across this on Amazon. I can only speak as someone with a programming background, but this was exactly what I was looking for. Mr. Ullman takes you through PHP from the ground up, but the layout of the book and the thoroughness of the index makes it a pretty good reference if you just want to know some particular piece of the puzzle. ...

Great XML Reference Book.
Other than the fact that you can tell that the book was written by 5 different guys because of the the difference in writing styles between chapters, overall it is packed full of information and a handy reference.

Good book for programmers
This book is a good reference for people who already have a fair amount of programming knowledge. You don't need to necessarily know PHP since it's pretty similar to all the other languages out there. You should however have an idea of how a data driven website works.

GREAT book!! Perfect for beginners, but still good enough for somewhat experienced users. I had my site up and running with loads of php scripts, mysql query's etc. in just a week after I got this book, complete with log-in pages, registration, and other fancy bells and whistles. After this, I got a couple other books for more advanced coverage, but still find myself turning back to this ...

Finally, a Great PHP Book
I've had a crack at PHP 3 times now. The 1st time my confidence was shattered. But I now know that the code in that book was riddled with errors. By the 2nd time, I knew how to write code (other languages), and was able to identify that the 2nd book which I tried had code that was also riddled with errors. But this 3rd time has been a resounding success, thanks to Mr Powers. Great ...

Very well written. Excellent resource.
I'm a senior ASP.NET/Web developer with no Ajax experience. This is my first Ajax book. I wanted to learn Ajax from the ground up, not just the Microsoft controls. Our ecommerce site is very highly trafficed and there's no forgiveness for inefficiencies. This book certainly fulfilled my expectations, but it also introduced me to some new worlds of concepts that I did not expect. For instance, the ...

Regular expressions, part of a healthy breakfast
Pocket references are not meant to teach you anything from the beginning, but to be everyday references in known and new environments. In other words, if you don't know regular expressions, then go to "Mastering Regular Expressions". If you're still here, then you'll get a cheat sheet on steroids for languages ranging from bug-prone JavaScript to the King and Queen of robustness, Perl and Python. ...
