When it comes to creating dynamic web sites, the open source PHP language is red-hot property: used on more than 20 million web sites today, PHP is now more popular than Microsoft's ASP.NET technology. With our Cookbook's unique format, you can learn how to build dynamic web applications that work on any web browser. This revised new edition makes it easy to find specific solutions for programming challenges.

PHP Cookbook has a wealth of solutions for problems that you'll face regularly. With topics that range from beginner questions to advanced web programming techniques, this guide contains practical examples -- or "recipes" -- for anyone who uses this scripting language to generate dynamic web content. Updated for PHP 5, this book provides solutions that explain how to use the new language features in detail, including the vastly improved object-oriented capabilities and the new PDO data access extension. New sections on classes and objects are included, along with new material on processing XML, building web services with PHP, and working with SOAP/REST architectures. With each recipe, the authors include a discussion that explains the logic and concepts underlying the solution.

Zunächst ist dieses Buch eines der vielen PHP Bücher, die auf Biegen und Brechen auf den 5.3 Zug aufspringen möchten. PHP 5.3 hat mit der Einführung von Namespaces und Closures einiges für die "Enterprise" Programmierung getan. Dieses Buch trägt dem aber eigentlich keine Rechnung. Vielmehr ist es eine Sammlung von einfachen Lösungen für alltägliche Probleme, die man ohne irgendein Framework-X mit 100000 Zeilen Code und etwa 100 Bugs mittels PHP bewältigen kann. Zudem betet es keine Paradigmen herunter sondern zeigt, dass man PHP auch einfach und schnell einsetzen kann, ohne gleich eine eierlegenden Wollmilchsau zu programmieren.
Mir hat es Spaß gemacht, die Ansätze in diesem Buch als Inspiration für meine eigenen Projekte anzunehmen. Da ich einige der vorgeschlagenen Lösungen während meiner Programmierarbeit selbst auf ähnliche Weise gelöst habe, gibt mir das Buch ein Gefühl mit meiner Einstellung zu PHP als hocheffizienten "Problemlöser", nicht alleine da zu stehen.
Im Vergleich zu den theoretischen PHP Büchern, die von MVC sprechen aber immer nur ein Blog oder andere "Kinkerlitzchen" implementieren, bekommt man hier etwas für die Praxis als Webworker.
Sollte man gelesen haben.
