Focusing on practical application, this guide helps you build interactive, database-driven websites using PHP 7, MySQL 8, and MariaDB. It begins with setting up your development environment and progresses through various projects, including user registration forms and an admin interface. You'll learn to enhance security, create a message board, and develop a product catalog and e-commerce site. The book also covers database migration to remote hosts and offers step-by-step instructions for transitioning to MySQL 8, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of database interactivity.

Focusing on practical application development, this book guides readers through creating a complete three-tier application using PHP 8. It emphasizes building and testing modules in a natural progression, introducing PHP features as they become relevant. This hands-on approach prioritizes solid, secure, object-oriented coding over abstract theory, making it ideal for those looking to learn through real-world examples.

This new book on PHP 7 introduces writing solid, secure, object-oriented code in the new PHP 7: you will create a complete three-tier application using a natural process of building and testing modules within each tier. This practical approach teaches you about app development and introduces PHP features when they are actually needed rather than providing you with abstract theory and contrived examples. In Learn PHP 7, programming examples take advantage of the newest PHP features, including enhanced password encryption using password_hash. This book takes a learn-by-doing approach, providing you with complete coding examples. "Do It" exercises in each chapter provide the opportunity to make adjustments to the example code. The end of chapter programming exercises allow you to develop your own applications using the algorithms demonstrated in the chapter. Each tier is logically and physically separated using object-oriented and dependency injection techniques, thus allowing independent tiers that can be updated with little or no effect on the other tiers. In addition to teaching good programming practices through OOP, there is a strong emphasis on creating secure code. As each chapter is completed, the reader is provide the opportunity to design and create an application reinforcing the concepts learned.

Gain an in-depth understanding of PHP 7 arrays. After a quick overview of PHP 7, each chapter concentrates on single, multi-dimensional, associative, and object arrays. PHP Arrays is a first of its kind book using PHP 7 that demonstrates inserting, appending, updating, and deleting array data. This book also covers validation methods to insure that the data provided by a user is good before the data is entered into an array. You’ll see how PHP 7 try/catch modules are used to capture exceptions and errors that may be caused by invalid data. The code examples demonstrate common real-world scenarios. Moreover, examples of every PHP 7 array function (over 75) are demonstrated. The appendix provides a two-dimensional array case study on the logical design of a checkers game. PHP Arrays answers the following questions: Why do we need arrays? When do we need to use arrays? Are arrays efficient? Can arrays reduce coding time? When do you use multi-dimensional and associative arrays? What is an object array?
