It contains all the code needed to create seven applications such as: user authentication with HTTP; user login; on-line catalog; shopping cart; content management system; Web forum; and, building and managing a mailing list (on the CD-ROM). It automates the programming process and walks you through building the application from start to finish. It explains how to write secure code. It features complete code not just snippets, but neatly assembled packages with “instant” real-world functionality. It shows how to build the applications in two forms - procedural and object-oriented programming - providing programmers who want to switch to the object-oriented method of coding (which is new in PHP 5!) with the essential know-how.Download Here
