If you consider JSP, then JSP, Servlets, and MySQL by David Harms is
excellent.

Philip and Alex's Guide to Web Publishing is truly excellent.  Has
nothing to do with PHP or MySQL, but it covers all the fundamental
material that SO many other books omit:

RE: Need A book for dynamic website

2001-11-14 Thread Christopher Thorpe

I found this one was pretty good when I fancied learning PHP...

http://www.wrox.com/Books/Book_Details.asp?ISBN=1861003730
Beginning PHP4 

What does this book cover?


Complete tutorial in the PHP language 
Installation guide and troubleshooting tips 
Introduction to relational databases and MySQL 
Practical worked examples throughout, including detailed case study 
All code written for both Windows and UNIX systems 
Detailed language reference included 
Technology Overview

PHP is a rapidly growing Web technology which enables web designers to build
dynamic, interactive web applications, incorporating information from a host
of databases, and including features such as e-mail integration and
dynamically generated images. PHP4 added tons of features to make web
application development even easier, and this book will show you how to make
the most of the language's powerful capabilities. 

This book is a complete tutorial in PHP's language features and
functionality, beginning with the basics and building up to the design and
construction of complex data-driven websites. Fully working examples in the
book include a directory-style web search engine, a mailing list management
system, a web based file editor, and a graphical online shopping mall
guidebook. 

Who is this book for?

Anybody who knows HTML can use this book. If you've done any programming,
that will be useful, but it's not a requirement. You can run all of the code
on either a Windows or UNIX (e.g. Linux) system, and the book explains how
to set up a web server and database in both of these environments. 

Wrox provides on-line discussion for the above title and surrounding
technologies on P2P.

When I was just starting to consider my database-driven web site, I
checked mysql.com and found this:

http://www.mysql.com/portal/books/html/index.html

The best-rated book is the one I chose to get:

MySQL
by Paul DuBois
New Riders

I think it's awesome.

(Although neither it nor the web site documentation can help me with my
problem in shutting down the mysql daemon with mysqladmin..  !)

I originally had purchased

MySQL/PHP Database ApplicationsĀ  
by Jay Greenspan and Brad (forget last name)

And found its example code was ridden with typos and errors, to the
point that I was having a great deal of trouble following the text.  I
took it back to the store to get the DuBois book.

Re: Need A book for dynamic website

2001-11-14 Thread Bryan Capitano

PHP and MySQL Web Development by Luke Welling and Laura Thomson (Sams
Publishing, Copyright 2001) is the best book on the market I think. But it
depends on your skill level. This book has a section on basic PHP language,
another section on setting up MySQL databases, and a third section with practical
examples of PHP/MySQL projects, including source code etc.

This book covers 90% of everything you'd need to REALLY know. For the other 10%,
I like to use the WROX series Professional PHP Programming by Castagnetto,
Rawat, Schumann et. al. It has more fine details of the PHP language which
Welling and Thomson just couldn't cover. But the WROX book only has one chapter
on interfacing with MySQL. It does have a nice library of MySQL functions in the
glossary, however, which Welling and Thomson would have been really wise to
incorporate.

The two of these books make a SLAMMING dynamic duo. You just can't fail with
them.

My experience with DuBois's book is that it's GREAT for MySQL, especially when
you want to interface with MySQL at the server level -- with C or C++ for
example.

But for PHP/MySQL or using MySQL at any level of web interfacing, this book just
doesn't do it.

Re: Need A book for dynamic website

2001-11-14 Thread Bryan Capitano

Todd  Are you familiar with either of the books I recommended? Each of
them does a fine job explaining (1) how to use PHP -- as a beginner (2) how
to use MySQL -- as a beginner.  The language is simple. If you've never come
across a for{} loop, it explains it clearly. If you've never seen an RDBMS,
or any of it's terminology, you will get a fine introduction. AND, what I
liked about these books (as a beginner) was that they had plenty of room to
grow -- chapters on more advanced topics, practical projects with source
code. You certainly don't have to read those chapters first. I like to get
books which have a few more miles that just the basics.

Nevertheless, if you need something more basic, with more elementary
language, I would suggest a book like Introductory Web Development, which
doesn't dive into topics like PHP and MySQL--because these are already
advanced topics relative to web development.

If you can't run with the big dogs, then stay on the porch.

Philip and Alex's Guide to Web Publishing is truly excellent.  Has
nothing to do with PHP or MySQL, but it covers all the fundamental
material that SO many other books omit:

or cheaper via Y! Shopping. :-)

Re: Need A book for dynamic website

2001-11-14 Thread John Steele

Hi David,

  I was the technical editor for _PHP4 A Beginner's Guide_ by McGraw-Hill, which 
covers PHP4/MySQL and written by William McCarty a professor of IT at Azusa Pacific 
University.  He is also a contributing editor for Linux Magazine.

  This book is completely aimed at the beginner, and the code is available online.  I 
tested it on both win9x and Linux/FreeBSD so I know the code works :)

  You can find links to the book, bio, etc. at the site in my sig below.  I'd normally 
not mention it, but it wasn't on your list.  It covers everything from e-commerce, 
intranet, network management, to database administration.

HTH,
  John
