Web Programming with PHP and MySQL

An introductory book covering all the major features of the PHP and MySQL "web programming" languages ​​along with detailed examples that readers (whether they are students on a course or independent learners) will be able to use to create their own applications or understand existing applications. Particular emphasis is placed on using PHP to generate MySQL commands from a script while it is being executed. Each chapter includes objectives, a summary, and practical exercises (with solutions) to support learning. The chapters are designed to be as self-contained as possible, so that they can be studied independently from the rest of the text by those with some prior knowledge of the languages. There is a comprehensive glossary of technical terms, as well as extended appendices for quick reference of language features.
