5.0 out of 5 stars A great book, easy to understand and with a very useful CD, 2 Sep 2001
By A Customer
This book takes a very good, visual approach to teaching PHP with step by step examples on every page. The book's subjects range from the installation of PHP (included on the CD) and webserver software to run it on, to mySQL functions. This book can be used both as a reference and as an initial learning aid. Definitely a good buy for someone starting out in PHP with or without a previous knowledge of programming.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well planned book for starting out, 27 Aug 2003
This step by step guide is fantastic for starting out in PHP and is well worth your money. If you are looking for Advanced more comprehensive examples this is not entirely the book for you.
