    I am pleased to announce my second book giveaway contest, to celebrate the release of PHP for the World Wide Web: Visual QuickStart Guide - 2nd Edition. Please see the book's supporting Web site at http://dmcinsights.com/phpvqs2 to sign up!

    Week Off

    Just so you know, I won't be able to respond to any emails or forum postings this week (through March 1). In the meantime, help each other out in the forum (if you can) and I'll chime in when I get back!

    Upcoming Radio Interview

    I'll be doing a radio interview to promote my new book "Mac OS X Panther Timesaving Techniques for Dummies". The interview will be on March 9th at 10:30pm EST with Computer America. Tune in if you are interested!

    PHP: VQS 2nd Edition Now Available

    I just received my copies of the second edition of the PHP for the World Wide Web: Visual QuickStart Guide. I hope that new readers like it as much as people liked the first edition and that re-readers (those of you who decide to buy the new edition) think it's a nice revision. The book's corresponding Web site will be completed next week.

    Site Move Completed

    The DMCI domain name has been successfully transfered from one server to another. I *think* all of the forum postings have made it over and that I've received every email. If you've sent an email or posted a message in the past week and I haven't responded, I won't bite your head off for re-posting or re-sending it to make sure I've seen it. Thanks for your patience!

    Site Potentially Down

    I'll be switching servers for my Web site at the end of this week (starting on Wednesday, January 21). I expect people may have trouble accessing the Web site, including the forums, during the transition. I will also not be able to reply to any emails during this time. I apologize for the inconvenience but hope that the new server results in better, more reliable performance.

    Errata Updated and Clarified

    The errata for all of the books have been updated. If you are curious as to why something you think is an error is not listed as an erratum, please post your message to the forum and I'll respond there. To be clear, I never reply to errata submissions.
