5.0 out of 5 stars Security is important!!, 6 Mar 2004
By A. Ø. Sætre (Norway) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There is a myriad of books out there that handles the topics of PHP, but how to create a secure application (i.e. Authentication System, E-mail system) in PHP? This book handles 50 secure applications of PHP, using OOP extensively (which is good and modern).

No basic PHP are covered (not even in the PHP primer appendix), so you should know your stuff before reading this, but I think it's a great book indeed!! You're an intermediate who want's to go further, buy this!

1.0 out of 5 stars Far too complex, 10 April 2004
Have read other books before this, so that I could get a background in PHP. When I came to this book, I was completely lost off from the start! This book is rocket science!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, 22 May 2009
By N. Williams (Liverpool, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Someone posted "Security is important" - well yes it is but I really got nothing from this book. I'm self taught in PHP and my skills are what I would call basic level, so I thought this would be good and useful.

Personally I was disappointed and ended up giving the book away as I learnt nothing from it to do with security. (Don't think the person I gave it too bothers with it much either and I taught him PHP !)
