Rating: - Unusable
Unfortunately alot of the book is out of date with regards to the examples. I wouldnt recommend buying it if your tring to learn Php & MySql. Better buying a book on each subject> if you learn both languages first you wont have any problem combining them as the Php syntax is very simple and your method arguments for databse access are just SQL statements

This isn't a very good book on PHP & MySql. Any learning book needs to have decent examples, as that is the only way you can learn. So to produce code that doesn't work is complete folly.

The book claims to be written for both the developer and importantly for `novice web developers interested in server-side scripting and database usage'. I easily fit into the latter category at this stage. I was hoping it would ... Read More

I bought this book at the same time as PHP 6 and MySQL 5 for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual QuickPro Guide (Visual QuickPro Guides) (which has been great) and Mysql Crash Course (Sams Teach Yourself) (which is a useful reference). I'd already developed one successful website using ASP.net, and had started to learn a few little bits of php from the web.

This book was the worst of my 3 purchases by a long way. It's just so boring! It was the first book I started with (because the outside looks ... Read More
