Needless to say, although the transition to Effortless E-Commerce was a daunting task, it was thoroughly enjoyable-- and even meditative--as I was able to follow the logic quite well, in spite of being weak in both the SQL commands and actual application (and sessions, which I can simply review from his previous books to get up to speed). To top off the good energy, I have also today begun reading Larry's MySQL book, which serves as a God-sent in preparing me for actually building the sites in Ullman's effortless e-commerce book.Some of the highlights of Larry's book include the presentation of his own voice in more detail than in Visual Quickstart guides. I loved his introductory components that outlined things such as PCI Compliance, security considerations, and advantages/disadvantages of various hosting packages with PHP sites. He also explained in greater detail ways to transfer over one's site from localhost to a paid server, which could involve either password protecting directories with secure information or putting them outside of the Web root, either method dependent on the option available from the corresponding service provider.Most importantly, however, Ullman's book was not only a provider of detailed instructions on how to build two e-commerce sites with varied functionality, but also a demonstrator of new instructional concepts, such as how to use stored procedures (with MySQL); how to incorporate advanced regular expressions; how to use some amazing JQUERY tools for added functionality; and how to use module rewrites to alter the urls for added security and user-friendliness. I found that I was continually learning new concepts, not just repeating the previous pattern for the sole purpose of reinforcement. I have to agree with our Amazon reviewer friend, DeveloperJerry, that a book on M-commerce (mobile e-commerce) using PHP/MySQL would be excellent to see, as it would provide additional stellar examples for devices. In fact, I was so at a loss with finalizing Larry's Effortless E-Commerce book, as it had such appeal that I wanted it to continue on forever, that an M-commerce book would be most welcome, indeed.I plan on continuing to work with the book in actually building the sites from scratch after both reading Larry's MySQL edition and getting more practice with using the phpMyAdmin tool. As a newbie, getting to this stage of development is a very thrilling process, one which I previously found impossible to achieve without the assistance of Larry's phenomenal teaching tools. I will just make concerted prayers, requesting that Larry decides to publish additional commerce books (M-Commerce, for instance) and publishes, possibly, a manual on JQuery specifically. Thank you so much, Larry, for the wonderful learning experience! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ E-commerce all-inclusive and then some! *by F***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2012* Kudos to the author for tackling the subject of implementing a payment system on a web application! Many other books cover the shopping cart topic but don't explain in detail as to how to receive payments.Between the book's two detailed examples of how to accept payments from customers, you will have everything you need to set up your own. I'm not sure why, perhaps due to developers writing the documentation as opposed to real technical writers, but the documentation available on e.g. Authorize.net for implementing their system is just one big puzzle. Yes, you could probably eventually figure it out, but would you really feel secure about your setup? Well I wouldn't be and that's where this book's true colors come into play. It gives you the confidence you need and then some. Heck, if you have some background in PHP/MYSQL and you simply want to setup a secure and efficient user protected website (user registration / login...) without the ecommerce part of it.... look no further. I like the PHO/MYSQL dummy book, but it will only get you started as far as how to build the foundation of a user login system (and rightfully so, it is a beginner's book). This book will teach you the real tricks that will come into play once your project grows bigger and as a results needs to work resource efficient and securely. But again, you will already need to have some PHP/MYSQL experience.Enough said, really one of my favorite PHP books! Also my first book by Larry Ullman. I will certainly be looking for his name next time I'm in the market for a new read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An invaluable resource in the development of my first e-commerce site *by G***G on Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2012* This book was my primary resource during the development of my first (and only, so far) e-commerce website. Before I dove into the aforementioned project, I read and worked through most of  PHP and MySQL for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual QuickPro Guide (4th Edition) , which was crucial to my success. If you're new to PHP and MySQL like I was but have experience with HTML and CSS -- definitely start there first.I didn't read through  Effortless E-Commerce with PHP and MySQL  page by page. I already had a specific project in mind before I got started, so I was always thinking about how I could apply what I was learning to my project. I'd get excited after learning something new and head off on my own. This approach usually left me stuck, or worse, at a dead end -- then I'd return to the book for answers. This process was repeated over and over until I finally got my site up and running. Was this the best approach? Probably not. It worked for me though and I think that says something about the book. It's not just a cookbook style guide to create an e-commerce website (though it certainly can be that if you want it to be), there's also enough substance to equip you with the skills you need to go off on your own.And for what it's worth, I find I still refer to this book on occasion as a general PHP and MySQL reference. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/200087529-effortless-e-commerce-with-php-and-mysql-voices-that-matter](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/200087529-effortless-e-commerce-with-php-and-mysql-voices-that-matter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-30*
