Improve your PHP coding productivity with the free compact open-source MVC CodeIgniter framework!

* Clear, structured tutorial on working with CodeIgniter
* Careful explanation of the basic concepts of CodeIgniter and its MVC architecture
* Using CodeIgniter with databases, HTML forms, files, images, sessions, and email
* Building a dynamic website quickly and easily using CodeIgniter's prepared code

In Detail

CodeIgniter (CI) is a powerful open-source PHP framework with a very small footprint, built for PHP coders who need a simple and elegant toolkit to create full-featured web applications. CodeIgniter is an MVC framework, similar in some ways to the Rails framework for Ruby, and is designed to enable, not overwhelm.

This book explains how to work with CodeIgniter in a clear logical way. It is not a detailed guide to the syntax of CodeIgniter, but makes an ideal complement to the existing online CodeIgniter user guide, helping you grasp the bigger picture and bringing together many ideas to get your application development started as smoothly as possible.
What you will learn from this book?

* Setting up the CI package on your web server
* Understanding the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern for organizing a dynamic website
* Understanding the structure of a CI site
* Designing better views and controllers
* Object-oriented aspects of CI
* Integrating databases such as MySQL and simplifying your database access
* Making your site more robust and professional by using CI's built-in classes
* Creating and validating HTML forms with CI form helpers
* Handling files, images, and sessions with CI
* Sending email from CI
* Using CI for testing your code with error handling, unit testing, benchmarking, and profiling
* Getting an XML-RPC server and client working
* Generating Create, Update, Delete, and Read (C.R.U.D) entries on each database table

Approach

This book steps you through the main features of CodeIgniter in a systematic way, explaining them clearly with illustrative code examples.

Who this book is written for?

This book is for developers who are new to CodeIgniter. Basic skills in PHP and MySQL are required, but only rudimentary object-oriented knowledge is required.

If you're looking for a better way to develop PHP applications, or want to find out more about the CodeIgniter framework as a viable option for one of your own projects, this book will help you.
