3 stars (Doesn't allow to print) - I was really excited while purchasing this The Zend PHP Certification Practice Test Book and Zend PHP Certification Study Guide. But this PDF books don't allow me to print. It is not convenient to read electronlc version. How can i print? Is there any option for hardcopy? 1 stars (Frustrating) - I purchased the Adobe Acrobat version of this book. It is convenient to be able to get it immediately, and to save on international postage, but I find it the fact that it is protected against printing extremely frustrating. This makes it hard to take the tests. 1 stars (garbage) - The previous reviewer was too generous. The numerous flaws in the book were so offputting that I finally gave up in disgust and discarded the book. One might expect that a book which asserts to prepare you for any exam would be proofread especially carefully. It appears that the only proofreading was just of simple grammar. Nothing on the logic or accuracy of what was actually written. I strongly urge you to look for another text. Don't waste your time with this one. ...

5 stars (An Excellent Development Environment for PHP) - Before finding ZDE I resulted to Macromedia Dreamweaver. An excellent program, but when compared to ZDE, it is garbage. One great feature is the function help. Lets say you are typing in a function like mysql_connect. Lets say you type in half the function name (Just "mysql"). A small window will appear showing you all functions starting with mysql. Another feature is debugging. Press F5 and it runs a debug with a local server or the internal version of PHP. It also has a realtime debugging system. If the syntax is wrong it underlines the incorrect part. ZDE also has an intergrated MySQL database browser. This means you can view your tables in your database in the same program There are also a lot of other small features like include checking and indenting. My only problem with this program is it's written in Java. This means that it is SLOW! And if Java crashes, so does ZDE. The means goodbye script that you have been working on for hours. I can understand why they did this. They have already designed an incredibal language and it would be a lot of work to design it in C++. Despite that problem this program is excellent and yoru will not be diappointed. One thing I should mention is that if you program in mutiple languages it may be better to get Dreamweaver as it has support for many languages ...
