Chapter 7 - pg 121 - Typo in middle of paragraph
following Listing 7-15 "...edit, open and delete
linksand a ..." - "links and" need a space between
them.

that is correct

Chapter 6 - pg.107 - Listing 6-18. Last line: $this-
>view->recentPages = $null; Shouldn't that be null
instead of $null?

that is correct. nice catch!

Chapter 5 - pg.84 - Updating Existing Pages. Next
to Listing 5-7 it says the updatePage() is in ...
models/ContentNode.php file. Shouldn't
updatePage.php be in ...models/Page.php instead?

that is correct.

HTML and CSS from pages 23 - 25 does not
render image 2-4 on page 26. It renders image 2-3
on page 22. The images on figure 2-4 are nowhere
to be found. As of right now I have no idea how to
render figure 2-4 displayed on page 26. The
images cannot be found on the source code archive
either.

this is correct. the image for figure 2-6 was used
for 2-4, while the layout should actually look like
figure 2-5 with dummy content.

This may be a better question for the editor.

That is a nice feature in the newer versions of the
framework.

should be return $row->id.

this is the version difference

page_id.

that is correct

5:86-Listing 5-12: Will findParentRow work when

that whitespace was a typo

That is correct

7:114-Listing 7-3: $_referenceMap should not be

this was going to be another feature, but you are
correct that it is not necessary and slipped through
the cracks.

7:122-2nd sentence, top of page: Extra 'f' in text.

that is right.

7:125-Listing 7-21: Last '}' is wrong font, should

yup

that is correct.

7:135-Paragraph under "Updating Menu Items":
"updateAction" should be "editAction."

that is correct

"editAction."

correct

7:139-Table 7-1 lists the admin menu items. There
is no corresponding table for main menu items
(Home, Getting Started).

i'm not sure i understand the question here.

7:139-GUID stands for globally-unique identifier.
Since we're only talking about Menus table-unique
ids, this should be just ID.

that is correct

7:140-Listing 7-50. Code assumes row 1 and 2 for
the menus, but this is not true if other menus were
created for testing. Text should probably mention
TRUNCATE TABLE `Menus`; before "Creating

The paragraph prior to this listing explains other
options.

NOTE

Thanks a lot for taking the time to submit these
issues. You should be a tech editor!

Also, FYI, when I say 'that is correct' i mean your
statement is correct.

Chapter 4 - page 68
Rendering the Bug Reports Using the Paginator

When using the paginator option ->
click edit from a bug ->
save bug and hover a paginator link ->
submitted fields from the bug update are now
inserted in the link.

What would be the best way to resolve this issue,
in the addressbar we do have /bug/edit, it seems to
me this should be /bug/list

Best regards,

Robert van Kemenade

this could be handled with a redirect back to the
list.

Chapter 4. Page 74 deleteAction listing:

"$this->_forward('list');"

doesn't send you to /bug/list as intended but leaves
you in /bug/delete/id/5(the number is an example).
When you want to go to (let's say) the third page of
results the url reads like this:

/bug/delete/id/5/page/3

Changig the code to:
"return $this->_redirect('/bug/list');"

sends you to the right url.

i would agree in this case that a clean redirect is
warranted.
