Featured Customer Reviews Not a feather in the visual quickstart guide's cap, October 16, 2008 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. Great for beginners to PHP, September 29, 2008 This book is great for the absolute beginner. It walks you through the basics, with examples side-by-side explanations of the methods and why the code looks the way it does. Awesome!!!, August 24, 2008 I received tis product in a timely manner (in time for class), and it was in excellent condition when it got here! This text book has been extremely helpful in learning PHP, and is one of the many tools I am using to further my Web Design knowledge. PHP for the World Wide Web (QuickStart Guide), March 28, 2008 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. [...] Great for learning PHP, March 16, 2008 I picked up this book at the library and it was so informative I had to go out and pick up a copy for my bookshelf for keeps.
