Publisher's Synopsis
PHP is one of the most popular server–side scripting languages available. It’s powerful and easy to learn. Combined with MySQL, a fast, cross–platform, and free open source database, it makes a very effective tool for developing database–driven web sites.
This book is all about developing PHP/ MySQL web sites with Macromedia Dreamweaver MX, the premier visual web site design tool. It will show you how to use Dreamweaver MX to rapidly develop database–driven PHP web applications with the minimum of fuss.
Throughout the book we use a real–world example application, a hotel room booking system, to demonstrate just how easily you can quickly build dynamic PHP sites with Dreamweaver MX.
