Great Book

I'm a self-taught web designer and this (as well as other books in the Dummies series) is a great book. Easy to read and was exactly what I needed.

Works as expected. Would buy it again and give it as a gift. The price was right and that is my story.

I normally like the "for Dummies" series because I know that it'll start me out at "zero" knowledge and get me through to an understandable/workable level of the subject. PHP & MySQL for Dummies seems to think I'm a programmer who doesn't know html instead of the reverse, which I am. The author spends pages, pages and chapters telling the reader how to format syntax and characters without running through examples for the reader to replicate. I'm about halfway through the book now and hope to eventually run into those examples.

Great intro into PHP & MySQL

Reviewed in the United States on October 27, 2008

I picked up this book to build a registration and payment page for my group's website. The only web programming experience I have was an html class I took in '96 and a little bit of javascript I learned in 2001 for a short term job. I am however and expert VBA and intermediate C# programmer.

I found the book very easy to read. There is a lot of repetition of some concepts that can get annoying, but they are always things that you really need to remember!

I had a couple minor issues in getting Apache and MySQL set up on my XP machine, but a short google search fixed my problems very quickly. I would definitely recommend that either you do all your testing on your actual webhost or that you make sure that you install the same versions of Apache and MySQL that they are using. I installed the latest MySQL, then found out when I tried to run it on our site that the MySQL version the host is running was an older version that required some alterations to my code. Nothing major, but annoying.

The chapters are laid out very well to bring from the most basic "Hello World!" program to a fully functional interactive website. If you don't know HTML, some of the code may not make much sense at first, but the book uses such a small amount of HTML that a quick google search will answer most of your questions. To get a slick, professional looking website, you certainly need to know HTML, CSS, etc. (or someone who does), but I wouldn't say that you'll be stuck if you get this book and don't know HTML. As I said, just google each of the tags you don't know and you'll likely find a satisfactory answer.

This is a fairly basic book in terms of what php and MySQL are capable of, but it's designed to be an introduction.

After reading it, and developing my own site based on it, I feel confident in picking up a more advanced php book.
