This is the second edition of the popular introductory book to the PHP programming language. Taking into account the latest changes in PHP, the book covers everything that the Web developer needs to know to start building dynamic Web sites today. Even if you’ve never programming a single variable or function before in your life, you’ll be able to follow along with the book’s material, creating relevant, useful code in the process. Throughout the book, you'll find sample scripts and projects as well as the timesaving tips and techniques that have become the hallmark of the popular Visual QuickStart series. A companion Web site offers all of the book's scripts for download as well as a support forum where you can ask questions from the author and other readers like yourself.

Summary: Not a feather in the visual quickstart guide's cap
Comment: This book covers the basics pretty well, but on more advanced topics such as mysql and regular expressions this book seriously lacks. The examples are way to simple and not very helpful at all. His section on simple query language is down right terrible. The regular expressions exmamples are inane and unpractical. What good does it do to introduce metacharacters, quantifiers and classes if you don't show real examples of how to use them. I would go with a more recent book. Hopefully Ullman has improved since this edition, which is lousy.

Summary: PHP for the World Wide Web (QuickStart Guide)
Comment: This is a very well written technical reference. The examples are so good that I was able to get my 1st PHP web page up quickly even though I hadn't been through the entire book. Larry Ullman's book has passed my personal test -- I got something useful done. I'm now in the process of reading the entire book and using the sample code to more properly learn PHP. I have a number of QuickStart books and they are all excellent. They are on my sites recommended reading list. [...]
