Reader Reviews
'Wicked Cool PHP: Real-World Scripts That Solve Difficult Problems' is a fantastic PHP cookbook that is written exactly the way I like books to be written: - it's fun to read and learn from - content is broken up logically at the right points - layout and design is a joy on the eyes and brain - length is around 200 pages which is within the 2-3 (hundred) range that I like most books to be Content is broken up over 12 chapters: 01. Basic script stuff 02. Configuring PHP 03. PHP Security 04. Form Fun 05. Text & HTML 06. Dates 07. Files 08. User and Session Tracking 09. Email Excitement 10. Image Tasks 11. Using cURL to talk to web services 12. Other Stuff The audience for this book hits the rare area of ALL developers from the expert to the newbie to the weekend hacker. There are 76 scripts contained within that nearly anyone could find useful in any project. I love No Starch books because they don't feel like reference materials, rather they package it in a fun way from the glossy cover to smart design. No Starch gets 'it' when it comes to what geeks want and PHPites you will WANT this book!! ***** HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
