===About the Working Files===

This PHP course is project based and users are encouraged to follow along and
replicate the examples. To assist we have provided working files which can be found
on the DVD in the folder called "Working Files", users who have purchased this
product on digital download will find the files within the main folder. These
working files have been created to work within the BlueFish editor that the author
uses in this course.
====

=== Users who don't wish to use the recommend BlueFish editor ===
Whilst we strongly recommend that users take advantage of pre-prepared code
snippets and the many features offered by the Bluefish code editor, some users may
wish to use another editor to follow this course. While we do not recommend using a
different editor, to assist these customers we've also included the snippets /
working files ( where possible ) in plain text format. These can be found in the
"Working Files-None-BlueFish Users" folder and for customers who don't wish to use
the Bluefish editor these text based working files should be used. Certain lessons
may require none BlueFish users to manually input code based on the authors screen.
=====

To help you stay on track we have laid out a schedule of the order in which the
working files should be used.
