Review
The PHP server-side scripting language and the MySQL databasemanagement system (DBMS) make a potent pair. Both are open-sourceproducts–free of charge for most purposes–remarkably strong, andcapable of handling all but the most enormous transaction loads. Bothare supported by large, skilled, and enthusiastic communities ofarchitects, programmers, and designers. PHP and MySQL Web Developmentintroduces readers (who are assumed to have little or no experiencewith the title subjects) to PHP and MySQL for the purpose of creatingdynamic Internet sites. It teaches the same skills as introductoryActive Server Pages (ASP) and ColdFusion books–technologies thataddress the same niche.
Authors Luke Welling and Laura Thomson’s technique aims to getreaders going on their own projects as soon as possible. They presenteasily digestible sections on specific technical processes–”Accessingarray contents” and “Using encryption with PHP” are two examples. Eachsection centers on a sample program that strips the task at hand downto its essentials, enabling the reader to fit the process into his orher own solutions as required. Tables that list options and othernuggets of reference material appear as well, but the many examples andthe authors’ commentary on them take center stage.
For reference material on MySQL, have a look at Paul DuBois’s MySQL. On the PHP side, Web Application Development with PHP 4.0 is excellent. –David Wall
Topics covered:

• The MySQL database server (for both Unix and Windows)
• Accessing MySQL databases through PHP scripting (the letters don’t really stand for anything)
• Database creation and modification
• PHP tricks in order of increasing complexity–everything from basic SQL queries to secure transactions for commerce
• Authentication
• Network connectivity
• Session management
• Content customization

Review
“This book by Welling & Thomson is the only one which I have foundto be indispensable. The writing is clear and straightforward but neverwastes my time.The book is extremely well laid out.The chapters are theright length and chapter titles quickly take you where you want to go.”–Wright Sullivan, President,A&E Engineering, Inc., Greer SouthCarolina “There are several good introductory books on PHP, but Welling& Thomson is an excellent handbook for those who wish to build upcomplex and reliable systems. It’s obvious that the authors have astrong background in the development of professional applications andthey teach not only the language itself, but also how to use it withgood software engineering practices.” –Javier Garcia, senior telecomengineer, Telefonica R&D Labs, Madrid “This book rocks! I am anexperienced programmer, so I didn’t need a lot of help with PHP syntax;after all, it’s very close to C/C++. I don’t know a thing aboutdatabases, though, so when I wanted to develop a book review engine(among other projects) I wanted a solid reference to using MySQL withPHP. I have O’Reilly’s mSQL and MySQL book, and it’s probably a betterpure-SQL reference, but this book has earned a place on my referenceshelf!Highly recommended.” –Paul Robichaux “The true PHP/MySQL bible,PHP and MySQL Web Development by Luke Welling and Laura Thomson, mademe realize that programming and databases are now available to thecommoners. Again, I know 1/10000th of what there is to know, andalready I’m enthralled.” –Tim Luoma,TnTLuoma.com
