Explore PHP and XML development using the Eclipse IDE, Express-C 9, and WebSphere Application Server Community Edition. Learn how to configure these applications, part of a program designed to kick-start your application development, to develop a Web-based movie information database.

Part 1 covered the installation and configuration of the tools, along with some basic proof-of-concept code development.
