PHP Percolate! Season 4

September 9, 2012 · 12:00 AM
Virtual

PHP Percolate!, our self-study group for beginners, is returning for Season 4. If you would like to learn PHP from the ground up, consider joining us. Tell your friends and co-workers to join in the fun.

The format of a virtual self-study group is as follows:

Each participant purchases the same textbook (PHP for the Web).

Each participant commits to read one chapter per week, complete the exercises and post a link to your completed work.

Each participant obtains assistance by posting questions to a discussion area set up on the Boston PHP Message Board for each chapter.

Note: There is no classroom instruction. There are no webcasts. There are no scheduled appointments of any kind. However, Percolate! Coffee Clubs have been known to spring up like food trucks in various Boston area communities. These Percolate! Coffee Clubs are informal gatherings set up by PHP Percolate! participants.

How do I get started?

Become a member of Boston PHP, if are not already a member.
Register for PHP Percolate! Season 4. Simply RSVP: Yes
Purchase a book (the only program cost). Simply visit the Boston PHP store and order PHP for the Web in one of two formats.

Full disclosure: Boston PHP Meetup receives a small commission on each sale which helps fund Meetup activities.

When your book arrives, start your virtual learning by reading one chapter at a time, completing the exercises and posting a link to your completed work.

FAQs:

Q: How long will the course last?

A: We will cover 13 chapters in the book, so 13 weeks starting September 9 and ending December 8. Refer to the PHP Percolate! Season 4 Master Discussion List for specific dates.

Q: Do I have to wait until September 9 to begin?

A: No need to wait. Feel free to begin by reading the Introduction once you obtain a copy of your book and proceed at a pace that best fits your current work/life situation.

Q: What if I have additional questions?

A: Simply post a reply below and you will receive a response.

Let's start percolating!

Unfortunately, I don't think I will be able to finish--I can't make the SQL parts in Chapters 12 & 13 work and I just don't have time to troubleshoot right now (new stuff to manage at work, holidays coming up...). I'm sad I won't get to be listed on the Wall of Accomplishment after getting so close, but it has still been really useful. I learned a lot, and appreciate the encouragement. One day I hope I'll make it to a physical event!

I'm really grateful for the announced extension... I made it as far as chapter 9 and life got in the way... but I don't want to give it up, so I'm still gonna try to finish up, including posts to the chapter discussions.

Not sure if I can complete it in the next 3 weeks. But glad for the opportunity. It's been a good experience.

  I bought the book, 2nd edition 2010. I received the pdf file. I downloaded the files that accompanies with it from apress.com. I saw other members having been doing exercises for every chapter, which I love too. However, i don't know where they got the exercise files so that they can practice along their reading. Can anyone share the exercise with me at nq_p[at]yahoo.com? thanks

It was a fantastic learning experience. Thanks to the leadership team for organizing this activity and providing such a great environment that facilitates self-study tremendously. The chosen textbook is excellent. It is well organized and paced with sufficient information for PHP beginners, very suitable for self-study. Working through all the examples in the book is a very effective way to learn (at least speaking for myself). I look forward to Percolating again, in Season 5!

Hi,

thanks, I have already done the book and the exercises, it was inspiring for me to see the discussion. I will be tackling David Power's PHP Solutions next.
But what I am looking for is a language without dollar signs - why put a variable with a dollar sign - the dollar might change it's value...
Joke aside, haven't the bankers done enough damage and killed and illed us? I am looking for a server side or client side language that is equivalent to PHP, I think it is a great language that could be made better.

  Don't worry about the $ symbol in PHP - that was instigated when the dollar was strong! LOL - seriously, you'll be happy you went the Yii PHP Framework route and stick with PHP. Some of the best websites in the world are written with PHP/MySQL...anyway, my 2 cents! :) :)

  Jeff, thanks for the tip, Larry's books are piling up, here is my course of study:
  - "PHP for the Web", finish Chapters 11, 12 and 13
  - "Effortless E-Commerce with PHP and MYSQL", I had a look at the attached website examples, that is interesting
  http://ecom1.dmcinsig...
  http://ecom2.dmcinsig...
  - "PHP Advanced and Object-Oriented Programming"
  The book is available now
  - "The Yii Book: Developing Web Applications Using the Yii Framework"
  - "Ruby"
  So I can apply my newfound knowledge to some coding without dollar signs. I am serious about this, the Euro is also a currency that is sending us down the river.

  Hi Jeff, the reason I want to be consequential about my coding is, that I have been seriously traumatised by the bankers network, when my colleagues died at 911. I realize that we need a better printing press, and our own money as such, and that is what my website will be about. It is more like a trading paper, fairly similar to money, but with a different concept behind, which is offering ones own goods. Basically I am putting out shares of my own company with every paper that will count as money as such.
  
  I had to be consequential in that I gave up my banking job when I saw what had really happened, and I want to explore all these different programming languages. I am glad there is a variety of programming languages. So I am very much looking forward to Ruby, as its code seems very nice, simple and straight forward, also less Apostrophes etc.

  I originally got stranded with a ZenCart Application, so I will have to learn PHP as well, there is just no way around it. I am also highly interested in the Yii Framework, I realized that Zend costs money. I installed it, but I will need a book to help me through the process, so I am looking forward to Larry's book:-)

@Percolators -- Sunday, September 9 marks the official beginning of PHP Percolate! Season 4. Meetup.com may decide to send you a "How was PHP Percolate!?" e-mail because typical Meetups begin and end on the same day. Feel free to ignore. You'll get a chance to evaluate the program when we officially conclude in December.

You will receive an official "Let's Start Percolating" e-mail from me by the end of the day on Sunday. Until then, rest up and get a good night's sleep.

FYI, I've just moved my completed exercises site from one of my GoDaddy hosting sites to my own, in-house, test server, but they are still available for view from the links I've posted here in the discussions for lessons 1-13 (I changed the DNS record for gomelez.com to point to the new location). This move initially broke a few things which I have (mostly) fixed already. I also disabled a couple of things (e.g. calls to phpinfo() and such) for reasons of security.

I did find, by the way, that someone had already uploaded a malicious script (Trojan horse PHP/Backdoor.AG with a filename of iahoula.php) via the Chapter 11 (Script 11.3) file uploads exercise file. That just emphasizes some of the comments I've made along the way about the need to be careful about some of the practice scripts in the book. Some of them really ought not to be made available for public access!

  Very interesting. I haven't done chapter 11 yet, but I'll keep an eye out and try to warn people when I feel a script could be dangerous.
  
  1 · August 27
- Larry Ullman
  
  Script 11.3 is view_quote.php; it doesn't upload files. Script 11.4 is perhaps what you were thinking? If so, please do note that if you follow my instructions, while a malicious user *could* upload a bad file, as may have happened in my case, that bad file could not be executed. So if you follow my directions, there's no inherent danger in having that script on a live site. Still, to make the script even more secure, I have a couple of specific tips just after that script's explanation.
  
  1 · August 27
- Larry Ullman
  
  Sorry, should have been "may have happened in your case".
  
  1 · August 27
- William F. Zachmann
  
  Larry, agreed! Yes, it was Script 11.4 I was referring to, not 11.3. And yes, putting it in a directory above the root directory for that particular site, as you recommend (and which I had done on GoDaddy), helps to make it secure even in the event of malicious uploads of the sort I got on GoDaddy.
  
  1 · August 27
- William F. Zachmann
  
  Oops! Wasn't done . . .
  
  1 · August 27
- Larry Ullman
  
  To further explain why this isn't a security problem, someone could, for example, upload a pornographic image through such a script. But because the uploads are stored outside of the Web root directory (per the instructions in the book), that image would not be viewable. Similarly, a malicious uploaded script would not be executable. Not that you want anyone to be able to upload whatever they want to your server, but, again, there's nothing inherently non-secure about this script.
  
  1 · August 27
- William F. Zachmann
  
  However, if one puts up the exercises on one's own server, as I have now done, there can be very serious security issue if it is not done very carefully. In my case, I have set up Apache 2.2 to serve up a number of web sites using named virtual hosting. My PHP Percolate! Season 4 files are in a windows directory two levels down beneath my primary web directory (as they were on GoDaddy) which also serves up a(nother) web site at the same level as the Uploads directory. So, unless I carefully set the directory permissions exactly right (denying access and execute permission to the Uploads directory from the web root site), a hacker could potentially execute a maliciously loaded script (of the sort that was in fact uploaded to my prior GoDaddy exercise files site) by appending the correct directories to the root site's URL.
  
  1 · August 27
- William F. Zachmann
  
  So if anyone else is putting up their exercise files on their own server, they really need to be aware of the potential problems with security if they do not understand very clearly how to set up directory access and permissions on their web server.
  
  1 · August 27
- William F. Zachmann
  
  "Not that you want anyone to be able to upload whatever they want to your server, but, again, there's nothing inherently non-secure about this script." -- Well, I guess that depends on your point of view. I think a reasonable argument could be made that any script that allows people "to upload whatever they want" to your server without explicitly providing security against malicious uploads is, by definition as it were, "inherently insecure", Larry. Your implied assumption is that simply putting the uploaded files outside of the root directory of that particular (virtual) web site's directory is valid, as I've noted above, if and only if that directory is configured so that it cannot be accessed by some other route and file in it executed. My point is that your implicit assumption that simply putting the uploaded files in some other directory means they are secure and cannot be executed is not necessarily correct in any given installation.
  
  1 · August 27
- William F. Zachmann
  
  I must say, however, that I have found it very interesting to examine the contents of the malicious backdoor script file that someone uploaded to my (now removed) GoDaddy exercise files site using Script 11.4! My anti-virus software actually first detected it when I did an FTP download of the latest files on GoDaddy to use them to create the new site on my test server. I fetched it out of quarantine, 'pulled its teeth' by removing the PHP script tags, and have been checking it out. I've never looked at a backdoor PHP script before. It is very interesting!
  
  1 · August 27
- William F. Zachmann
  
  My hunch is that it is at least partly non-functional (the malicious script, that is), because it relies on lots of connections to hacker sites that may no longer be available and working as intended) but if if were functional, I sure would not want to have it executing on any system of mine, that's for sure!
  
  1 · August 27
- William F. Zachmann
  
  er . . . make that: " . . . if it were . . ." please, and change the ")" after "intended" to a comma. *;-)

  There is always a significant risk of exposing code from training exercises to the world. Just take a good look at a server log and you will almost always see people probing for vulnerabilities. If one is found pray that you don't then become a target for every script kiddie on the globe. that is why I maintain a web server with nothing of any value or significance on it so I can play around. the problem with most books on how to code, especially introductory one is they just don't seem to be able to build security into their examples. When I went to school my internet technology course began with the building of a web server. Almost every student was hacked within 24 hours of coming on line. It turned out it was part of the course. Do you think we should take a closer look at the course material and post a list of exercises that comprise the "chapter assignments"?
