About the Free Online Edition
This site is designed to
give you more information about the book Building Websites with
Joomla! 1.5 Beta 1 by Packt Publishing. This
website will allow you to view content from the book and also allow
you to read through summaries of each chapter from the book.
About the book
The
book has been rewritten for v 1.5, apart from parts of Chapter 1
that cover CMS and Joomla! history. The presentation style is
similar to that of the v 1.0 book and similar issues are discussed.
About the
author
Hagen Graf was
born in July 1964. Born and raised in Lower Saxony, Germany, his
first contact with a computer was in the late seventies with a
Radioshack TRS 80. As a salesperson, he organized his customers'
data by programming suitable applications. This gave him a big
advantage over other salesmen. With the intention of honing his
skills, he joined evening courses in programming and became a
programmer. Nowadays he works in his wife's consulting company as a
trainer, consultant, and programmer (http://alternative-unternehmensberatung.de).
Hagen Graf has published two other books in German, about the Apache
web server and about security problems in Windows XP. Since 2001, he
has been engaged in a nonprofit e-learning community called "machm-it.org
e.V.", as well as in several national and international projects.
All the projects are related to content management, community
building, and harnessing the power of social software like wikis and
weblogs. He chose Mambo CMS because of its simplicity and
easy-to-use administration. You can access and comment on his blog (http://hagen.take-part.org).
