PHP & MySQL Web Development
Designing web pages and designing web sites are not really the same thing. To make an effective website you need to know some “backend” stuff. That is what is really going to make your site useful.
There are a few different languages that can be used to create dynamic websites, but the popular one of the moment is PHP and MySQL. PHP handles the programming and MySQL does database duty. Using these two technologies you can create a dynamic website for a business or personal use.
This book is great for helping you to figure out how these languages can work together. It is designed for the beginner to intermediate level and will help you learn by walking you through the creation of a web store. I limited programming experience and zero PHP experience before reading this book, but i was able to follow along easily.
Even if you don’t want to create a dynamic website PHP will hlep you create a smarter website. It will allow you more flexibility for future growth and redesigns. This book is highly recommended for aspiring web developers like yors truly.
