Core PHP Programming (3rd Edition) Review by J. Schroeder

A reference book without an index

This is a 1000+ page programming reference book that has omitted an index. How do the authors think readers can turn to this book to look up the syntax and usage of a function without an index to find it? I own a copy of the 2nd edition (that has an index) that is falling apart. This one is not useful for more than a paper weight unless you plan to read it like a novel. Perhaps the publisher in charge just transfer from the fiction section.

Like many other reviews, I feel that the examples are weak. You have to have a high level of PHP knowledge to understand many of them.
