About this title

Synopsis

Revised and Updated Jan 2022 Edition 6

Written from a series of college lectures on PHP and MySQL this book is a practical look at programming.

It starts with an introduction to PHP and then goes on to MySQL and how to use SQL with the PHP language. It provides an introduction to web programming, how to display data from a database and update data to a database. It explains issues that you encounter in real world situations and provides the basic code from which you can then use for further development.

Many of the Chapters consist of a series of examples and tasks which are intended to illustrate each point and concentrate on simplified code so that you can see how to use it.

All code is available for download from the book's web site to make it easier for you.

PHP and MySQL are a terrific open source combination to create dynamic database driven web sites which are being used in many web applications such as WordPress, Joomla and Drupal. This is where it's at - don’t be left behind - it is not as difficult as you think.

What you need to know
It would be helpful to have some experience in programming using one of the more popular languages such as Visual Basic, although this is not necessary. It would also be helpful if you have some HTML knowledge, but the code examples should provide you with what you need to know about HTML.
