PHP & MySQL For Dummies 3rd edition (For Dummies (Computer/Tech))

I normally like the "for Dummies" series because I know that it'll start me out at "zero" knowledge and get me through to an understandable/workable level of the subject. PHP & MySQL for Dummies seems to think I'm a programmer who doesn't know html instead of the reverse, which I am. The author spends pages, pages and chapters telling the reader how to format syntax and characters without running through examples for the reader to replicate. I'm about halfway through the book now and hope to eventually run into those examples.

Works as expected. Would buy it again and give it as a gift. The price was right and that is my story.

I don't normally buy into books like this but it's been a valuable resource for my website building.

GREAT

I'm a self-taught web designer and this (as well as other books in the Dummies series) is a great book. Easy to read and was exactly what I needed.

Janet is very good at taking you by the hand and showing you what you need to know about php and mysql, Even without any prior knowledge of mysql and php you will understand the book. The fact is that the book is just too good for starters! It deserves my 5 stars.

The product was as described and the shipping was fast.

Just the book i neet it, very easy to understand. great help and a great reference to understand database and php.
