Dreamweaver Mx: Advanced Php Web Development

This is the long-awaited follow-up from glasshaus' "Dreamweaver MX: PHP Web Development" (1904151116), which Matt Brown (Deamweaver Community Manager, Macromedia) described as "the VERY best book I have ever seen dealing with databases and web programming".

But you don't need to have read that book; any experience of developing PHP sites with Dreamweaver MX or Ultradev is a great starting point. This book takes your PHP sites beyond the functions provided by server behaviors. It teaches you PHP, from the syntax to full applications, from the point of view of a Dreamweaver user, covering PHP-generated email, XML, Sessions and Cookies, Flash and two case-studies - a Training Log and a Content Management System.

The chapters take you from basic syntax through to developing full applications, teaching the basic functionality, then showing you how to use it in real-world examples.

This book is for any Dreamweaver user who wants to delve beyond server behaviors and into the art of hand coding PHP.
