WHY USE PHP?
If you need to embed dynamic text into static text, you’ll find PHP extremely useful. It was
designed for this, and it excels at it. PHP is also very useful for integrating web pages with
databases.
The PHP scripting language resembles JavaScript, Java, and Perl, These languages all share a
common ancestor, the C programming language.
PHP is most different from JavaScript and Java. PHP is a server-side scripting language. All of
the “work” is done on the server. JavaScript (and Java) generally run on the client. They have
little access to the information that the server has, and mediated access to information on the
client. They can do lots of things on the client that PHP cannot. PHP has full access to the
information that the server has, and very little access to information that the client has. In fact, it
only has information that the client tells the server and that the server passes on to PHP. Because
it is on the server, however, PHP cannot be modified by the client. While you cannot necessarily
trust the information that the client gives to PHP, you can trust that your PHP is doing what you
told it to do. Because PHP is on the server end, your PHP scripts can affect your server—such as
by keeping an activity log or updating a database.
PHP and Perl often work side-by-side. These are both server-side. Where PHP excels at
embedding dynamic content, Perl excels at modifying (or “filtering”) streams of text. PHP excels
at putting things into documents, and Perl excels at finding things in documents. After you have
learned PHP, you may well find Perl useful for many tasks, especially for command-line tasks.
PHP has an advantage over Perl on most web sites because PHP is usually loaded as part of the
web server. When scripting languages “run”, the system has to first load the “interpreter” and
then “compile” the language into code that the machine can understand. When you tell PHP to
echo the current time to the web page, the computer needs to have your command translated into
numbers that it can understand. Because the PHP interpreter is already loaded as part of the web
server’s software, it is always running. This cuts out half of that process. The interpreter is
already loaded, and it can go directly to compiling the language into code. When web servers see
a request to run a Perl script, they usually have to first load the Perl interpreter. This happens
very quickly, but when there are thousands or tens of thousands of requests coming every
second, every “very quickly” can add up.
C programs are “pre-compiled”. They cut out both steps in that process: no interpreter is needed
because the program is already compiled into code the machine understands. Because of this,
however, C programs must be compiled every time you switch to a new machine. If you move to
a different host, you will usually have to recompile your C programs. Sometimes you’ll even
have to recompile your C programs when your ISP upgrades their server’s system software. And
many ISPs do not provide you with a C compiler. You’ll find that PHP is more “portable” than C
in this respect: if it works on one server, it will usually work on any other server that has it. Most
ISPs that provide server-side scripting provide PHP.

PHP 6 and MySQL 5 for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual QuickPro Guide

Posted on by

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

It hasn’t taken Web developers long to discover that when it comes to creating dynamic, database-driven Web sites, MySQL and PHP provide a winning open source combination. Add this book to the mix, and there’s no limit to the powerful, interactive Web sites that developers can create. With step-by-step instructions, complete scripts, and expert tips to guide readers, veteran author and database designer Larry Ullman gets right down to business: After grounding readers with separate discussions of first the scripting language (PHP) and then the database program (MySQL), he goes on to cover security, sessions and cookies, and using additional Web tools, with several sections devoted to creating sample applications. This guide is indispensable for intermediate- to advanced level Web designers who want to replace their static sites with something dynamic. In this edition, the bulk of the new material covers the latest versions of both technologies: PHP 6 (due out in 2008) and MySQL 5 (available now). The book’s publication date is likely to beat the official release of PHP 6, making it one of the first books available on the subject.

From the Author

This is the third edition of the fourth book I wrote and it continues to be my most popular. In this book I teach how to use the two most important server-side technologies–PHP and MySQL–to begin creating dynamic Web sites today.

The book teaches everything you need to know to create real-world Web applications, from the fundamentals of PHP, SQL, and MySQL, to more complex uses of all three technologies. The book does not assume previous experience with any of these, although you should already be comfortable with HTML. I will say that this book, considering all the content involved, goes at a fairly quick pace. If you have less computer, Web development, or programming experience, you may be better served by my “PHP for the Web: Visual QuickStart Guide” book, which goes more deliberately and explains things in smaller chunks.

When I wrote the book, PHP 6 was about half-way complete, so I was able to use a beta version of PHP 6. For somewhat complicated reasons, PHP 6 has since died and its status is still uncertain. Still, I can recommend the book in good conscience, as only a few pages of one chapter require PHP 6, and that content is clearly marked (actually, most of that content can be replicated in PHP 5, just using different code). As with all my books, if you ever have problems with or questions about any code, you can always get a direct answer from me via email or, preferably, using my online support forums.

In March of 2011, I begin writing the fourth edition of this book, due out in August 2011.

Thanks for your interest in the book. It is appreciated. And if you purchase it, I hope you like it and find it to be useful and informative.

PHP Solutions: Dynamic Web Design Made Easy

Posted on by

Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This is the second edition of David Power’s highly-respected PHP Solutions: Dynamic Web Design Made Easy. This new edition has been updated by David to incorporate changes to PHP since the first edition and to offer the latest techniques–a classic guide modernized for 21st century PHP techniques, innovations, and best practices.

You want to make your websites more dynamic by adding a feedback form, creating a private area where members can upload images that are automatically resized, or perhaps storing all your content in a database. The problem is, you’re not a programmer and the thought of writing code sends a chill up your spine. Or maybe you’ve dabbled a bit in PHP and MySQL, but you can’t get past baby steps. If this describes you, then you’ve just found the right book. PHP and the MySQL database are deservedly the most popular combination for creating dynamic websites. They’re free, easy to use, and provided by many web hosting companies in their standard packages.

Unfortunately, most PHP books either expect you to be an expert already or force you to go through endless exercises of little practical value. In contrast, this book gives you real value right away through a series of practical examples that you can incorporate directly into your sites, optimizing performance and adding functionality such as file uploading, email feedback forms, image galleries, content management systems, and much more. Each solution is created with not only functionality in mind, but also visual design.

But this book doesn’t just provide a collection of ready-made scripts: each PHP Solution builds on what’s gone before, teaching you the basics of PHP and database design quickly and painlessly. By the end of the book, you’ll have the confidence to start writing your own scripts or–if you prefer to leave that task to others–to adapt existing scripts to your own requirements. Right from the start, you’re shown how easy it is to protect your sites by adopting secure coding practices.

From the Author

What made the first edition of “PHP Solutions” my most popular book was that I wrote it with PHP 5 in mind at a time when most websites were still hosted on PHP 4 servers. So, when friends of ED asked me to prepare a second edition, I thought it would be a simple task — just remove the PHP 4 material, and add some new techniques. How wrong I was!

The decision to drop support for PHP 4 was liberating. I realized that some tasks, such as uploading files and creating thumbnails, could be much better handled by custom classes. I hadn’t been able to do that in the first edition because classes in PHP 4 and PHP 5 are mutually incompatible. The classes break complex tasks into simple, easy-to-understand operations. Better still, all the code is project-neutral, so you can reuse the classes in other websites by writing no more than a dozen lines of code — sometimes less.

Although the book retains the original structure of the first edition, all the code has been completely rewritten, making it cleaner and more efficient. Other new features include displaying the results of a news feed using SimpleXML and the Standard PHP Library (SPL). There’s also detailed coverage of the date and time classes introduced in PHP 5.2 and 5.3. The chapter on working with multiple database tables has been expanded to explain how to implement foreign key constraints in InnoDB, the default storage engine in MySQL 5.5.

This new edition requires PHP 5.2 and MySQL 4.1 or later. The code won’t work in earlier versions.

From the Back Cover

What you’ll learn
  • Updates to the first edition with the latest PHP techniques for modern, dynamic web design
  • Create dynamic websites with design and usability in mind, as well as functionality
  • Understand how PHP scripts work, giving you confidence to adapt them to your own needs
  • Bring online forms to life, check required fields, and ensure user input is safe to process
  • Upload files and automatically create thumbnails from larger images
  • Manage website content with a searchable database

Who this book is for

This is a “must have” reference book for any Web developer using PHP scripting language. If you have read the first edition classic, then this update will bring you the latest PHP techniques and best practices. If you are new to dynamic web design with PHP, then David will introduce you to the core techniques and methods for dynamic PHP web sites, ready for the 21st century!

About the Author

David Powers is the author of a series of highly successful books on PHP, Dreamweaver, and web development. He began developing websites in 1994 when – as Editor, BBC Japanese TV – he needed a way to promote his fledgling TV channel, but didn’t have an advertising budget. He persuaded the IT department to let him have some space on the BBC’s server, and hand-coded a bilingual website from scratch. That experience ignited a passion for web development that consumes him to this day.

After a career spanning three decades in radio and TV news, David left the BBC in 1999 to work independently, and developed an online system with PHP and MySQL to deliver daily economic and political analysis in Japanese for the clients of a leading international consultancy. Since 2004, he has devoted most of his time to writing books and teaching web development. His clear writing style is valued not only in the English-speaking world; several of his books have been translated into Spanish and Polish.

David is an Adobe Community Professional and Adobe Certified Instructor for Dreamweaver. In 2010, he became one of the first people to qualify as a PHP 5.3 Zend Certified Engineer.

From the Author

Having developed for the Internet since the mid 1990s I have used a number of programming languages, beginning with Perl, which was the first tool I mastered. However I soon found that great though Perl was for developing with, at the time it didn’t have the power I needed for ultra busy websites, and so the load averages of the servers I used was going through the roof.

So I rewrote all the processor-intensive code in C and was able to substantially slow down our server acquisition rate. But while C is powerful, it takes a lot of coding to replicate even basic Perl functions. So when PHP came along I was very pleasantly surprised to discover that even though it is interpreted (that is, re-compiled each time it is run), it placed far less of a strain on the servers than Perl, and also took up far less development time.

Since then I have used PHP in combination with MySQL for all my server side development. And with JavaScript gaining the XMLHttpRequest object, and hence the beginnings of Ajax, the three technologies are now my mainstays for web development.

So when O’Reilly asked me to write this book I jumped at the opportunity. In it I have tried to take you from first steps, without assuming any prior knowledge other than basic HTML and maybe some CSS, through each of the technologies in turn, and along the way point out the shortcuts and pitfalls I have discovered, to give you the headstart I didn’t have.

I maintain an active discussion forum on the book’s topics, which is linked to via the companion website at lpmj.net, and am always happy to answer any questions you may have.

PHP and MySQL Web Development (4th Edition)

Posted on by

<a href=”http://phpfly.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/2.jpg”>

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

The PHP server-side scripting language and the MySQL database management system (DBMS) make a potent pair. Both are open-source products–free of charge for most purposes–remarkably strong, and capable of handling all but the most enormous transaction loads. Both are supported by large, skilled, and enthusiastic communities of architects, programmers, and designers. PHP and MySQL Web Development introduces readers (who are assumed to have little or no experience with the title subjects) to PHP and MySQL for the purpose of creating dynamic Internet sites. It teaches the same skills as introductory Active Server Pages (ASP) and ColdFusion books–technologies that address the same niche.Authors Luke Welling and Laura Thomson’s technique aims to get readers going on their own projects as soon as possible. They present easily digestible sections on specific technical processes–”Accessing array contents” and “Using encryption with PHP” are two examples. Each section centers on a sample program that strips the task at hand down to its essentials, enabling the reader to fit the process into his or her own solutions as required. Tables that list options and other nuggets of reference material appear as well, but the many examples and the authors’ commentary on them take center stage.

For reference material on MySQL, have a look at Paul DuBois’s MySQL. On the PHP side, Web Application Development with PHP 4.0 is excellent. –David Wall

Topics covered:

  • The MySQL database server (for both Unix and Windows)
  • Accessing MySQL databases through PHP scripting (the letters don’t really stand for anything)
  • Database creation and modification
  • PHP tricks in order of increasing complexity–everything from basic SQL queries to secure transactions for commerce
  • Authentication
  • Network connectivity
  • Session management
  • Content customization

–This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Review

“This book by Welling & Thomson is the
only one which I have found to be indispensable.
The writing is clear and straightforward
but never wastes my time.The book is
extremely well laid out.The chapters are the
right length and chapter titles quickly take
you where you want to go.”
—Wright Sullivan, President,A&E
Engineering, Inc., Greer South Carolina

“There are several good introductory
books on PHP, but Welling & Thomson is an
excellent handbook for those who wish to
build up complex and reliable systems. It’s
obvious that the authors have a strong background
in the development of professional
applications and they teach not only
the language itself, but also how to use it
with good software engineering practices.”
—Javier Garcia, senior telecom engineer,
Telefonica R&D Labs, Madrid

“This book rocks! I am an experienced
programmer, so I didn’t need a lot of help
with PHP syntax; after all, it’s very close to
C/C++. I don’t know a thing about
databases, though, so when I wanted to
develop a book review engine (among
other projects) I wanted a solid reference
to using MySQL with PHP. I have
O’Reilly’s mSQL and MySQL book, and
it’s probably a better pure-SQL reference,
but this book has earned a place on my
reference shelf…Highly recommended.”
—Paul Robichaux

“The true PHP/MySQL bible, PHP
and MySQL Web Development by Luke
Welling and Laura Thomson, made me
realize that programming and databases are
now available to the commoners. Again, I
know 1/10000th of what there is to know,
and already I’m enthralled.”

Enjoyed the book? Consider writing a review and help others find the book!
 
Why are you giving it away for FREE? I get asked that a lot, and the simple truth is that most people are looking for a book like this not just for a digital copy of the book’s content, but for the actual physical book.

Giving away a PDF version serves three purposes:

  1. Provides a digital copy of the book for owners of a physical copy
  2. Allows people wanting to preview the book to get more than just a few pages. Don’t get me wrong, I am thankful for every copy of the book sold, but as a consumer I would rather know that the book I’m spending my money on is what I am looking for rather than wasting my money if it isn’t the right fit.
  3. Gets the book in more hands than I would simply selling a physical copy. It’s ridiculous (except to groups like the RIAA) to assume that everyone who downloads the PDF version would have bought a copy of the book if there wasn’t a free version available.

 
20,000+ downloads of the free PDF already!
