Java in Easy Steps by Mike McGrath

PHP 7 in easy steps begins by explaining how to install a free web server and the PHP interpreter to create an environment in which you can produce your very own data-driven server-side web pages. You will learn how to write PHP server-side scripts and how to make MySQL database queries. Examples illustrate how to store and retrieve Session Data, how to provide a Message Board, and how to access Web Services APIs over HTTP.

PHP 7 in easy steps has an easy-to-follow style that will appeal to:

• anyone who wants to begin producing data-driven web pages
• web developers wanting to add server-side interaction to their web sites
• the programmer who quickly wants to add PHP to their skills set
• the hobbyist who wants to begin creating scripts for upload to their own ISP
• the student, and to those seeking a career in computing, who need a fundamental understanding of server-side programming with PHP
