PHP Solutions: Dynamic Web Design Made Easy
Autor David Powersen Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 dec 2014
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.

books
on

including

PHP
for

8/em.
As
a
professional
writer,
he
has
been
involved
in
electronic
media
for
more
than
30
years,
first
with
BBC
radio
and
television
and
more
recently
with
the
Internet.
His
clear
writing
style
is
valued
not
only
in
the
English-speaking
world;
several
of
his
books
have
been
translated
into
Spanish
and
Polish.
What
started
as
a
mild
interest
in
computing
was
transformed
almost
overnight
into
a
passion,
when
David
was
posted
to
Japan
in
1987
as
BBC
correspondent
in
Tokyo.
With
no
corporate
IT
department
just
down
the
hallway,
he
was
forced
to
learn
how
to
fix
everything
himself.
When
not
tinkering
with
the
innards
of
his
computer,
he
was
reporting
for
BBC
television
and
radio
on
the
rise
and
collapse
of
the
Japanese
bubble
economy.
Since
leaving
the
BBC
to
work
independently,
he
has
built
up
an
online
bilingual
database
of
economic
and
political
analysis
for
Japanese
clients
of
an
international
consultancy.
When
not
pounding
the
keyboard
writing
books
or
dreaming
of
new
ways
of
using
PHP
and
other
programming
languages,
David
enjoys
nothing
better
than
visiting
his
favorite
sushi
restaurant.
He
has
also
translated
several
plays
from
Japanese.

Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
Introduction When the first edition of PHP Solutions was published, I was concerned that the subtitle, Dynamic Web Design Made Easy, sounded overambitious. PHP is not difficult, but nor is it like an instant cake mix: just add water and stir. Every website is different, so it s impossible to grab a script, paste it into a web page, and expect it to work. My aim was to help web designers with little or no knowledge of programming gain the confidence to dive into the code and adjust it to their own requirements. The enduring popularity of the first edition suggests that many readers took up the challenge. Part of the book s success stemmed from the use of clear, straightforward language, highlighting points where you might make mistakes, with advice on how to solve problems. Another factor was its emphasis on forward and backward compatibility. The solutions were based on PHP 5, but alternatives were provided for readers still stuck on PHP 4. Time has moved on. PHP 5 is now a mature and stable platform. This new edition of PHP Solutions requires PHP 5.2 and MySQL 4.1 or later. Some code will work with earlier versions, but most of it won t. The emphasis on future compatibility remains unchanged. All the code in this book avoids features destined for removal when work resumes on PHP 6 (at the time of this writing, it s not known when that will be).
