Heather, you always work harder on these books than I do. Thank you for your love and your support. Thank you Elizabeth, Matthew, and Jacob for understanding why Daddy was typing all the time. Thanks to the Open Source community for creating great free software like PHP and MySQL. Also, thanks to the phpMyAdmin team and the SQLite team for developing such terrific software and making it freely available. Thank you, Stacy Hiquet, for your continued support and encouragement on this and other projects. Thanks, Scott Harris. You did a great job of juggling all those balls around. Thanks to Tonya Cupp for drastically improving the readability of the manuscript.

this book. A huge thanks goes to my CSCI N399 and N452 Server-Side Web Development classes and the many people who sent in comments and advice from the first edition.
