INTRODUCTION

The open-source content management application Joomla has been and is proving its
power in the era of e-commerce, it has contributed to the development of the Web 2.0 world.
If given the choice to develop Web applications in the context of globalization, we can
choose open source technology to execute our strategy due to acceptable development and
operating costs.

From a business perspective, you can easily and quickly create a Web site with all the
necessary features. Therefore, when customers want to build Web applications at a
reasonable cost, they really cannot choose a solution other than Joomla. However, when
working with Joomla, you may also face a lot of problems with structure, presentation
templates, databases and source code. That's why you aim to approach Web site structure
and PHP scripting.

Going further, you can learn the HTML tags and declarations of PHP scripts and SQL
statements by yourself in the MySQL database so that you can build your own Web
applications.

Volume 1 of the book "Web Programming with PHP 5.3 and MySQL 5.1 Database"
includes 7 chapters and attachments. Chapter 1 provides you with an understanding of the
Web site's functionality, installs the WampServer 2.0 package, and configures it to run Web
applications using PHP, MySQL, and Apache Web Server.

In Chapter 2, you continue to learn how to create Web sites and design structures for
businesses using the open-source content management system Joomla. To satisfy the
presentation, you continue to learn how to design static or dynamic Web pages using native
PHP code with Dreamweaver CS software in chapter 3 and HTML tags in chapter 4 .

Next, you can learn the syntax of the PHP script in Chapter 5 and learn how to use the
PhpMyAdmin application to administer the MySQL database in Chapter 6. In Chapter 7 you
learn the SQL statement of the database. MySQL was used to build online sales
applications.
