 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.

 Dreamweaver MX 2004 Savvy is an incredibly in-depth and
thorough guide to Macromedia's powerful web publishing software. This
book includes detailed coverage of everything from migrating sites over
from other applications to using Cascading Style Sheets to working with
the five major server technologies to supporting e-commerce and blogs.
Hands-on tutorials reinforce the tricks, tips, and
techniques presented. This book covers every aspect of using
Dreamweaver, including:
Planning Your Site: using the Site Definition Wizard; using
templates, assets, and libraries; setting up a remote server; serving
and testing your site locally; customizing and extending Dreamweaver.
Designing Web Pages: using tables, layers, and style sheets;
using image placeholders; taking advantage of Dreamweaver’s latest CSS
features; building a navigation interface; adding interactive behaviors.
Building Database-Backed Web Apps: assembling forms from front
to back; choosing from and using ASP, ASP.NET, JSP, ColdFusion, and
PHP/MySQL server technologies; managing dynamic content with ASP and a
database.  Dreamweaver MX stands at the
center of a complex series of overlapping worlds. In one realm, we have
designers of static Web pages looking to expand their knowledge base
into data-driven sites. Over there, you’ll find application
developers—some savvy in Active Server Pages and ASP.NET, some in
ColdFusion, and some others in JavaServer Pages and PHP—anxious to
develop for the Internet. There’s a spectrum of experience in both
camps that runs the gamut from eager novice to experienced
professional. Then there’s yet another group of prospective Web
craftsmen and artists who want to do it all and are looking for a place
to start. Dreamweaver MX is the one program robust enough for them all,
and Dreamweaver MX Bible is your guidebook to all its features and capabilities. |
