PHP books tend to fall into three broad categories: beginner’s tutorials, cookbooks for experienced users, and project-based books. This book tries to steer a middle course. It assumes no prior knowledge of PHP or MySQL, but is intended to be of equal value to designers and developers who already have some experience of these technologies. The approach I have taken is to explain each section of code in sufficient detail so that readers of all levels should be able to follow. However, the basic reference material is concentrated in Chapter 3, so more advanced readers shouldn’t find themselves needing to wade through stuff they already know.Because the book is aimed at web designers, most of the material centers on the Japan Journey site shown in Figure 1-4 (you can also view it online at http://foundationphp.com/phpsolutions/site). It’s not intended to be a book-long case study that you’re expected to build chapter by chapter. Most PHP books concentrate solely on code and pay zero attention to design, so the idea is to show you that pages built with PHP don’t need to look ugly. You also see how to integrate PHP into an existing website. The emphasis is on enhancing your sites rather than building complex PHP applications from scratch.
