Part I,“Using PHP,” provides an overview of the main parts of the PHP language with examples. Each example is a real-world example used in building an e-commerce site rather than “toy” code.We kick off this section with Chapter 1,“PHP Crash Course.” If you’ve already used PHP, you can whiz through this chapter. If you are new to PHP or new to programming, you might want to spend a little more time on it. Even if you are quite familiar with PHP, you will want to read Chapter 6,“Object-Oriented PHP,” because the object-oriented functionality has changed significantly in PHP5.Part II,“Using MySQL,” discusses the concepts and design involved in using relational database systems such as MySQL, using SQL, connecting your MySQL database to the world with PHP, and employing advanced MySQL techniques, such as security and optimization. Part III,“E-commerce and Security,” covers some of the general issues involved in developing an e-commerce site using any language.The most important of these issues is security.We then discuss how you can use PHP and MySQL to authenticate your users and securely gather, transmit, and store data. Part IV,“Advanced PHP Techniques,” offers detailed coverage of some of the major built-in functions in PHP.We have selected groups of functions that are likely to be useful when building an e-commerce site.You will learn about interaction with the server, interaction with the network, image generation, date and time manipulation, and session variables. Part V,“Building Practical PHP and MySQL Projects,” is our favorite section. It deals with practical real-world issues such as managing large projects and debugging, and provides sample projects that demonstrate the power and versatility of PHP and MySQL.
