Review # 1 was written on 2012-05-01 00:00:00 Brian Ragusa Of all the PHP books in my library, I use this one the most. Warning: do not attempt this book if you have no concept of object-oriented programming (OOP). I would try understanding chapters 1 & 2 of "The Object-Oriented Thought Process" (Weisfeld) or some other OOP for beginners book prior to tackling this one. However, this book is amazing if you have a preliminary grasp of OOP. Basically each chapter gives instructions on how to harness and customize a different built-in PHP class (for example, chpt3 the DateTime class for displaying/calculating dates, chpt6 the SimpleXMLElement class for creating/parsing XML documents, etcetera). As a bonus, chapter 7 offers an introduction to the SPL (Standard PHP Library), a collection of classes built into PHP for solving standard problems.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-03-22 00:00:00 GREG Roble This was one of the two OOP books that helped me understand the shift PHP was going through from spaghetti code to OOP. Thanks to David for helping me get over the hump.
