Beginning PHP and MySQL: From Novice to Professional, Fourth Edition
is a major update of W. Jason Gilmore's authoritative book on PHP and
MySQL. The fourth edition includes complete coverage of PHP 5.3
features, including namespacing, an update of AMP stack installation and
configuration, updates to Zend Framework, coverage of MySQL Workbench,
and much more.
You'll not only receive extensive introductions to the core features of
PHP, MySQL, and related tools, but you'll also learn how to effectively
integrate them in order to build robust data-driven applications.
Gilmore has seven years of experience working with these technologies,
and he has packed this book with practical examples and insight into the
real-world challenges faced by developers. Accordingly, you will
repeatedly return to this book as both a valuable instructional tool and
reference guide.
