Berkeley, CA—24 March 2008—The PHP scripting language and MySQL database server’s meteoric rise in popularity over the past few years, combined with the clear and cohesive writing of W.

According to the author, “…if you’re interested in gaining practical and comprehensive insight into the PHP programming language and MySQL database server, and how these prominent technologies can be used together to create powerful database-driven web applications, this book is for you.”

Highlights from this title include the following:

• With more than 100 pages of new material, this book encompasses everything from installation to integration to advanced programming and data management techniques.
