Exactly what I was looking for,
I am a Kona coffee farmer and I sell my coffee through my website. I used to be a professional programmer before becoming a Kona coffee farmer. Leveraging off that experience, and Larry’s previous books, I wrote all the code for my website: HTML, CSS, PHP, mySQL, everything. Throughout the process I wished for a book exactly like this one.
When I heard that this book was being published my first thought was “too late to help me.” When I received my copy, I realized that I was wrong. Even though I spent years as a professional network programmer, and my website was already written, I am still in the process of rewriting large parts of my website because of the excellent information in this book.
If you’re a web developer, this book is for you. Even if you aren’t going to write everything yourself, this book will still help you understand the important concepts such as security, PCI, user accounts and site administration.
The book does assume a certain amount of experience with PHP and mySQL. That’s the best part though, unlike any other author I’ve ever read, Larry Ullman has a website with useful forums and he answers nearly every question himself. Have a question about figure 7.2? With this book you can get an answer.

|The Wait is Over!!!!!!!,
I have been pleased with Larry Ullman’s books up to this point, but this one takes the cake! I have spent countless hours researching online for the information documented in this book. This book outlines in detail two different e-commerce models that will make any developer more valuable. First example is a site that uses PayPal. It goes into detail on how to use the PayPal sandbox to test your site before it goes live. The second example shows the reader how to implement a payment gateway directly onto your site. The second example is far more complex, but knowing how to accept credit card payments directly onto your site is very valuable and is well worth a little pain in grasping all that goes into that.
He talks a lot about internet security, SSL, and server configuration … all which are extremely important when it comes to e-commerce. If you are just starting to learn php or mysql, I would highly recommend one of his other books such as “Beginning PHP” or “PHP & MySQL” .. that is where I started 6 years ago.
Larry has taught me a lot and has helped me become a more valuable developer.
Thanks Larry
P.S. Hey Larry … idea for next book: M-commerce (mobile e-commerce) using PHP/MySQL
