A Web-Based Introduction to Programming combines basic HTML and CSS with PHP and MySQL to introduce essential programming syntax, operations, and control structures. The hands-on Web-based approach is designed for students with no previous experience and offers a suitable first programming course for a range of disciplines. The book makes use of a freely available lampp distribution that students can install in minutes on any Windows, Macintosh or Linux computer with no need to access a remote Web server. Topics include: algorithms, markup and style sheets, basic PHP syntax, text file processing, selection structures, loop structures, indexed and associative arrays, Web sessions, functions, database queries, and object-oriented programming. The appendices provide additional topics and tools: data representation; file addressing, using the command line, security and validation, FTP, version control with git and GitHub, and phpMyAdmin. Chapters begin with a list of clear learning outcomes and end with quizzes and three levels of code exercises: ""fixit"" exercises challenge students to fix specific syntax and logical errors; ""modify"" exercises require additions to existing code; ""complete code"" exercises provide requirements for simple applications. Note that instructors can ""cherry pick"" suitable topics after the first few chapters. The fifth edition has been significantly updated and includes expanded coverage of HTML, CSS and PHP, as well as introductions to a number of useful tools. The Web site https://www.mikeokane.com/textbooks/wbip/ provides support for software installation as well as student ""Hints and Help"" pages, and instructor resources.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Greenway, Chattanooga, Tennessee, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
