Beginning PHP4 offers an almost ideal introductory
tutorial to one of today's hotter scripting languages.
This book really is everything that the novice needs to start building dynamic Web sites that are
powered by PHP4, but old hands at programming also will find in it valuable information.
PHP, of course, is introduced in the book, but there's also an
approachable and effective introduction to programming in general. The conscientious tutorial on basic concepts like variables, keywords, and flow control will give even
beginners an understanding of the basics of writing programs.
PHP, it turns out, is not only a great way to generate HTML dynamically, but a very
marketable skill. Web fundamentals like HTTP, HTML form variables, and managing session information using no less than four different techniques are explained thoroughly
and effectively.
You also find out how to install PHP and other tools on your system, with the assistance of plenty of screen shots.
That's not to say that this book will cramp the style of more experienced developers. Some chapters delve into such important and advanced topics as database
programming (with MySQL) and PHP's support for XML.
One standout section demystifies the new support for objects and classes in PHP4.
Basic topics like managing files and directories on the server, plus graphics processing, are addressed, of course, and a nifty sample program shows you
how to build a Web-based text editor.
Except for the final case study--a "URL directory manager" (akin to Yahoo!) that's rather specialized--the
examples are right on, and illustrate everyday programming tasks.
You'll learn also how to generate e-mail with PHP--certainly a valuable skill to
have.
The appendix lists several hundred PHP functions in over 50 pages--a handy and useful feature.
In all, Beginning PHP4
provides a strong choice for learning about one of today's most powerful and easy-to-use scripting languages; it's concise, fast moving, and thoroughly approachable. |
