I like "In Easy Steps" books because they give the basics to get you going quickly. I like to learn by building on basics and being experienced in programming (as an amateur) I understand a lot of the foundational information. I need the nuances of specific languages. BTW ... Excel VBA is my favorite. But in the case of "PHP & MySQL", it has not been "easy steps".Too many software books are too complicated to get started on ... kinda like asking the time is but instead of an answer you are given a book to build a clock (sometimes an atomic clock!). In Easy Steps is not a book on building a clock but gets you going in the basics so you can build from there.The problems I have with this book (PHP & MySQL in easy steps: Covers MySQL...) are the ratholes that need to be chased so early in the book before I can get back to the book's original intentions. The book and its website lacks "what to do when things don't work" ... or at least some general guidance.Here are three:1) Stuck at page 11 when "localhost" didn't work as the book said. It did not display the webpage as it should have. The trouble is that there is no guidance as to what to do when it didn't work.1-Solution) For me, World Wide Web Publishing Service (WWWPS) was most likely the problem since it was using port 80. WWWPS is pre-installed and automatically turned on in Windows 10. When I turned it off, localhost worked. But it is TBD if I broke anything turning it off. So I may need to visit that rathole again.2) Stuck at page 23 ... getting error message "MySQL server has gone away". OK... that's not expected ... so why did it go away? How do I get it back? What to do? As such, I'm down another rathole visiting a bunch of web pages until I find one that points me in a direction I can use!2-A) There is a discrepancy between the downloaded code and the book (page 22) relative to the connect_db.php file (as of Sept 20 2018). Line 4 has an "@" sign in the download version. With the "@" included, I got one error message. Without the "@" I got much better error messages (three different error messages that lead me to the solution as described next).3) Still stuck at page 23.3-Solution) The current version of PHP is 7.2.8 (Sept 22 2018) and generally you are advised to install the latest version for any software. But there is a bug in 7.2.8 that is causing the problem encountered at page 22. Reverting to 7.2.4 fixes the problem (7.2.4 is what the book uses and was probably the most current available at its writing))>> For more information, search the bugs.php site for 76660 "Bug #76660 Cannot connect to mysql 8 using Php 7.2.8"In all honesty, number three is not the fault of the book. But when you are getting started, any trouble is a big deal and you are at a loss as to where to start looking. Yes, software and the systems they operate in are complex. When things work well it is great. It is when things don't work that we need guidance.So far I'm glad I got the book (and I'm no longer stuck) since it presents the basics and is getting me started. If there was better online support, I think this could be a five-star book.I've bumped my rating from a 3 to 4 star rating.
I must say i wish i found this series months ago. I tried to learn programming previously using those big 1,000-page technical books. All those books did was confuse me.This book explains in one page what the large books do in 20 pages. The format of the book makes it easy to follow, using color-coded programming code. One page explains the concept and the next is a coding exercise. The code that the book asks you to type up is simple enough to show you what is going on. A screenshot of the result is shown as well, at the bottom of the page.The book is light on programming jargon so the concept is simple enough for non-programmers to get it. Even if you don't get it, just re-read and glance at the code on the following page and it will be easy to pull the meaning out of the text.The book is rather small and light, which makes a good print book for a learner on-the-go. I believe it is around 192 pages long, inclusive of the index.I will be looking at more books in this series thanks to this book.The only I wish this author did with the book was notate how to get set up with non-local web server, such as a paid monthly/annually web server. I adapted the book's code and got the MySQL to verify its version, based on the MySQL exercise in the beginning of the book.Many people prefer XAMP for local web server for PHP, the book uses Abyss Web Server.
Exactly what I needed! For beginners like myself I find it does a great job breaking down and giving examples for using PHP and MySQL together.My background is 13 years HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, 3 years with WordPress, 5 years with databases (Started with Access, then learned how to use PHPMyAdmin in my webhosts' CPanel to tweak some things with WordPress... that's when things started to click for me, in terms of how Databases and Websites work together). If you are trying to play "catch-up" check out HTML, CSS, and SQL classes on codecademy.com first.I've always wanted to make a form on my own - now I can, and more!I know I will continue to use this book as a reference.
Love the way every two pages consist of a lesson and exercise.Also, a list of some of my bug fixes:"Chapter 2: Describing dimensions"- Make sure you space the brackets "[ ]" in the second foreach loop or the brackets will be interpreted literally as a part of the array not a separate value."Chapter 4: Validating for data"- For testing email I used "/^[_A-Za-z0-9-]+(\.[_A-Za-z0-9-]+)*@[A-Za-z0-9-]+(\.[A-Za-z0-9-]+)*(\.[A-Za-z]{2,})$/" for my pattern variable.
This is my second PHP book. The first one was about 500 pages and after reading it for a while, I was more confused than when I started. PHP & MySQL in Easy Steps is a condensed book on PHP that is very clear and accurate. It uses everyday words and not so much of the confusing jargon you are used too. The chapters in this book are small so I have been taking them one by one and working the examples on my computer. I have learned more in reading and working half of the examples in this book than I ever have with any of the other PHP books and websites. Great job Mike McGrath! Love it! I'm gonna buy them all!
This book covers a lot of different scenarios and makes them very easy to understand. I also like that since I bought a digital version of the book, I can just type in what I'm looking for and there's usually an example of exactly what I'm trying to do.
This is a good book for beginners.It is easy to readExplains very wellYou also will learn the basics of SQL, Forms, Validation, Basic hacking prevention.
Shows you most of everything you need to know on how to deal with PHP and MySQL. This definitely helps with understanding the languages a little bit better.
