This title was one of two available books at my local library on PHP. I gave it three stars because although it had fantastic, creative ideas for potential projects, most of the sample code was outdated or did not work. I downloaded the code from their online website, so I assumed it would updated.

Overall the book did explain most of the beginner concepts in just enough detail to grasp what you need to in order to make basic programs. The sample code not working made it a difficult tutorial book. I ended up using this more for inspiration and learning code words to search online for the answers I was looking for rather than look through this book for reference.
