lt;p>"Web programming with PHP and MySQL fulfills the promise of its subtitle: a practical guide. The writing is friendly and clear, with the author indicating when every alternative to a command is not given and making suggestions on when it is necessary to consult with an Internet service provider (ISP). ... the book is a useful reference and serves as an introduction to using PHP and MySQL for building applications for the web."
