Edward Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Hi Larry, today i put the digital voucher number in the book into the PeachPit website but the code is not working. Is the site updated with these codes for download of the eBook. I wanted to download the book for my mobile device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Hello Edward. Strange as it may seem, I have absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with Peachpit's Web site. I'm just one of a thousand writers they work with. If you're having a problem with something at Peachpit's Web site, you should contact them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted October 19, 2012 Author Share Posted October 19, 2012 Okay I'll contact them tomorrow. Love that Bootstrap modular site you put in the book that was really creative and I like the modal window in the Js book it's always something I wanted to do.

Edward Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 Talking about Bootstraps imagine Larry you had your own project you would be working on for the next 10 years and no others, with your current knowledge would you just build up your own bootstrap and framework for this project or would you use someone else's, that is considering you had a lot of time on your hands? My guess is you would build your own, am i correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 No, you are not correct. I don't believe in re-inventing the wheel. Yes, creating my own framework would allow me to get something exactly like I want, but unless I've created a framework (or two) before, I'm going to get some things wrong, which will have serious repercussions later. And someone else's framework will undoubtedly be better tested. I would rather spend my time developing the actual project than creating a new framework when several good ones already exist. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Thanks Larry, that answers my question. Eagerly awaiting your Yii ebook, as soon as that's out i will be onto it. How much do you charge for a 1 hour consultation chat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 My consultation rate is $125/hour. However, for new clients, I require a six hour minimum to start (it's not an efficient use of my time to just do one hour with a new client). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Why not just round it off to a nice $1000. I hate to ask but i am gonna, how close is the YiiFramework ebook launch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Hopefully it'll be ready to sell in a week. Keep in mind, that only Part 1 is done so far. That's 4 chapters plus the introduction. I'll be continuing to write the book over the next three months, I imagine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 This is going to be awesome, 4 chapters is enough to keep us going for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 I emailed PeachPit yesterday regarding the book code and received an email from them today, i thought their zero in the code was Q, so it was mistake. I have to say after reading the YiiBook on my mobile device I have come to love the eBooks, its just awesome being somewhere and being able to pull the notes up without carrying around the big book. It also helps you to keep what you are reading private which i prefer. Well now i have that on my mobile i should be able to better my skills for helping members around here if i can get to a thread before anyone else does. What about PHP and MySQL for Dynamic Web Sites forth edition would there be a chance Larry you can email me a eBook pdf version of that, i do have the book here.

Larry Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Glad that worked out for you. As for the PHP & MySQL book, I don't think I even have a PDF copy of that, let alone one that I'm privy to give out. Sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
