@peteaylward @Apress Thanks,Pete. It’s 13 years actually since the first edition that @chrisdavidmills inspired/browbeat me into writing back in the days of the much lamented friends of ED.

The course was written with PHP 7 in mind. It will be updated, but no immediate plans.

@Techyjc Glad you found the cause of the problem. The BOM can cause lots of problems to PHP. It’s difficult to diagnose because it’s invisible.

@salman_dv @SamDavePollard #PHP is used in 4 out of every 5 sites that use a server-side language (w3techs.com). I think it has a very strong future.

Thanks @SamDavePollard. Feedback like that makes all the effort that goes into building courses worthwhile.

@Techyjc Make sure there's no space after Firstname in the CSV file. Although invisible, it would make a difference when comparing values.

Without seeing the arrays, it's impossible to say what's happening. Have you tried using array_diff_assoc() and/or array_diff_key() to examine what's different between the arrays?

The mysql module was removed from PHP 7. You either need to downgrade to PHP 5 (bad idea) or switch to using MySQLi functions. Alternatively use PDO.

@foundationphp how to over come this sir "your php server doesn't have the mysql module loaded or you can't use the mysql_(p)connect functions"

@rehmasikki @khan_sikki @dreamweaver There are tons of MySQLi tutorials on the web. I’ve also created a course for @lynda and @LI_learning.

@khan_sikki @dreamweaver AFAIK @Adobe has no plans for a @dreamweaver server behavior for MySQLi. You can buy MySQLi extension from @dmxzone. Alternatively, learn how to write the code yourself. It’s not difficult.

Got questions about my #PHP Tips, Tricks & Techniques or Learning PHP courses on @LI_Learning? There’s a new Q&A tab that I’ll be keeping a regular eye 👁 on.

Wow. Comments like that make all the pain and suffering of creating a course worthwhile. 😊 @LI_Learning

@foundationphp I can't over state how much I'm loving your PDO and MySQLi course! Oh, the hours and days of pain and suffering I could have spared myself if I'd watched it when I added it to my playlist over a year ago!
