CodeIgnitor book? - El Forum - 09-23-2007 [eluser]Derek Allard[/eluser] I've got a copy, and in fact, was a reviewer (with Rick) of the text during its development. I just put up a review of Codeigniter for Rapid PHP Application Development on my blog if you're interested. CodeIgnitor book? - El Forum - 09-23-2007 [eluser]Paul Scott[/eluser] I have this book. My boss ordered it for me after I told him I was going to try out CodeIgniter on the current project that we're doing. I was looking for a clear-cut, "This is MVC: Put this here, this here and this here," which it gave. I was hoping for a few more complex examples on how you might re-structure a large (more traditionally developed) PHP application for an MVC framework, which I guess must come with experience and frequent use. Would I buy this book _after_ reading it? No, probably not (sorry). Why? Well, it's not for it's lack of content or examples or because the author hasn't managed to explain something without being over-technical -- the book was well-written and the content was good -- it was just frustrating to read because the text was butt ugly. Stupid? Perhaps. But it bugged me all the way through. Edit: But I do stress that the content and style of the book is good. |
