PHP and MySQL have become a serious and commercially viable system with

which to develop web applications. With the relase of PHP 5, J2EE

developers, in particular, are starting to take a second look at PHP. And while

there are many books on the makret that describe PHP language syntax, there

are very few that fully describe web application development with PHP and

related technologies. This book describes the complete web application

development lifecycle, from planning the application to designing the user

interface to building in robust security. And since web applications serve the

entire world, often neglected globalization issues are treated in detail.

Though MySQL is used throughout the examples, Part IV also contains

examples of building applications on top of both Oracle and PostgresSQL, two

popular alternatives to MySQL for use in mission-critical systems.
