The PHP language is in use today at over 12 million Internet domains worldwide, and continues to grow in popularity at an astonishing rate of almost 400,000 domains a month. The latest version, PHP 5, is in beta and is expected to reach final form by Q1 2004. It is a significant new release that speeds up performance, improves XML and streams support, and includes many new functions. PHP 5 increases the appeal of PHP to serious programmers who have not used it before, and it requires current PHP users to re-learn many things as to how they have approached PHP in the past. PHP Developer's Handbook provides a complete, practical, and authoritative guide for both the experienced programmer who is considering PHP for the first time and the current PHP user who wants to learn more about PHP 5 and how to fully exploit all its new capabilities. The book begins with a detailed summary of the basics, and then quickly moves on to more advanced topics such as working with data, outputting graphical data, interacting with messaging servers, and building complete applications.

Over the past three years PHP has evolved from being a niche language used to add dynamic functionality to small sites to a powerful tool making strong inroads into large-scale, business-critical Web systems. The rapid maturation of PHP has created a skeptical population of users from more traditional "enterprise" languages who question the readiness and ability of PHP to scale, as well as a large population of PHP developers without formal computer science backgrounds who have learned through the hands-on experimentation while developing small and midsize applications in PHP. While there are many books on learning PHP and developing small applications with it, there is a serious lack of information on "scaling" PHP for large-scale, business-critical systems. Schlossnagle's Advanced PHP Programming fills that void, demonstrating that PHP is ready for enterprise Web applications by showing the reader how to develop PHP-based applications for maximum performance, stability, and extensibility.
