1.2     Who this book is not for

This is NOT the latest copy of this book; click here for the latest version.

If you don't fit into one of these categories, you are doing well already:

  • People who want more pictures than words

  • People who do not trust open-source software

  • People who aren't willing to commit a little time each day or every few days to try out code examples for themselves

I cite the last category particular because of Flip Wilson's law: "You cannot expect to hit the jackpot if you do not put a few nickels in the machine".

Table of Contents
Want to see this stuff in print? PHP in a Nutshell takes the core topics covered here, adds in thousands of edits from the editorial team and myself, and combines them to make an unbeatable reference for PHP programmers at all levels.



My latest book has hundreds more tips on how to use PHP, Apache, and MySQL, plus Perl, Python, shell scripts, performance tuning, and more!
