Customer Reviews
Reviewer: phprawks02 from Bakersfield, CA United States
It does a good job of explaining basic programming functions... But once you get into anything somewhat advanced your left in the dark.. confused.. The section on database use with php is excellent. I wouldnt reccomend this book if your starting out with programming.

Reviewer: Kathy B from Cape Canaveral, FL
Great book - it really gets to the meat of the matter with plenty of examples. This series in general is meant for fast, visual learning without all the reading.

Reviewer: Michelle Hermans from New York, USA
This must the easiest PHP text. The layout is simple, and allows to step thru each section very fast. There are enough examples, to explain how each function works. This book is a good read for those who need a fast and easy stepping thru to PHP. From there on you can buy more advanced books to build up on your knowledge and get your hands dirty.

Reviewer: A reader from Madrid, Madrid Spain
It is a book for begginer with a great paper design.
