Contemporary Web applications routinely include multimedia (audio, video, and animation) in addition to back-end database processing. The design of these interactive applications requires the integration of several technologies - most commonly HTML, Flash, and PHP. An array of successful books offers instruction on the use of XHTML, Flash and PHP, but they treat each tool discreetly, as if they are the only necessary tool. In fact, the tools must be used in combination to develop the modern interactive application. Coding Interactive Web Sites with XHTML, Flash, and PHP is designed to survey these three critical tools for Web designers and demonstrate how they can be deployed in combination to create interactive Web applications. The book teaches best practice design techniques within the context of tutorial projects that demonstrate progressively more sophisticated deployments. The written discourse is complemented with video demonstrations and projects the reader can build/modify to enhance the learning experience. Video training, code examples, activities and a reader forum are all supplied by the companion Web site.


* Serves the millions of Web designers using HTML, CSS, Flash, and PHP with a unique focus on tool integration * A project-based guide to the array of tools and techniques necessary to implement interactive Web applications * 2 hours of video training and re-usable sample code are provided on the companion Web site
