Features: What do eBay, Amazon.com, and CNN.com have in common? They are all applications that integrate a large number of databases into their web interfaces. The popularity (and powerful features) of these applications stem from their accessibility and usability: thousands of users can access the same data simultaneously without needing to install additional software on their computers. This book provides both theoretical knowledge and practical opportunities for web developers to create web database applications. It includes tutorials on the PHP and MySQL languages, as well as background knowledge such as Internet and web protocols, modeling and design of relational databases, session management, and the installation of open-source services and database software.
