PHP5 And MySQL Bible

Although we’re biased, we believe that the PHP Web-scripting language is the hands-down winner
in its niche—by far the easiest and most flexible server-side tool for getting great Web


sites up and running in a hurry. Although millions of Web programmers worldwide could be
wrong, in this particular case, they’re not. MySQL is the most popular open-source database
platform, and it is the first choice of many for creating database-backed PHP-driven Web sites
As we write this, PHP5 is in its third beta version, and PHP has continued to grow in reach,
adoption, and features since we wrote the first two versions of this book.
