hassan Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Hi Does the effortless ecommerce book write code in object oreinted? Is it worth going the advanced PHP object oriented book before doing this or can I start going through this book after going through PHP and MySQL for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual QuickPro Guide (4th Edition) ?

webcre8tor Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 No the author decided to write the code in a mostly procedural approach stating that it could easily be converted into object oriented instead of the other way round. I've only started on the effortless ecommerce book, PHP as always takes a bit time to get your settings correct. Previous PHP and MySQL knowledge would be an advantage otherwise it could be difficult to understand the terms. I think it all really depends on how quick you are to learn.

hassan Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 many thanks I am actually going through the two other books on php PHP and MySQL for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual QuickPro Guide (4th Edition) by Larry Ullman and PHP for the Web: Visual QuickStart Guide (4th Edition) by Larry Ullman I realised that the dynamic websites had overlapping chapters so istarted that tooo its good consolidation of what I already learnt in PHP for the web. I have a fe chapters left in PHP for the web and then im done with that. The reason I asked was that i was thinking of going through: PHP Advanced and Object-Oriented Programming: Visual QuickPro Guide (3rd Edition) by Larry Ullman Before i did efortless ecommerce book as I wernt sure if that was written in Object oriented I guess after the PHP and MySQL book I can start with the effortless ecommerce .... I must say so far I am finding it easy to understand how to code in PHP the books are really well organised and they actually make you think about how you would actually apply what you learn in a real project. I cant wait to create my first full ecommerce site ... Ive already got the books waiting for me...lol Thanks for the advice much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Thanks for the nice words and for the interest in the book. As long as you are very comfortable with PHP & MySQL, you can read either the PHP Advanced or the Effortless E-commerce book next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
