I just bought PHP and MySQL Web Development 4th Edition by Welling and Thompson. The book uses examples from the CD-ROM, which appears to not come with the Kindle Edition. Is there any way to download, legally or questionably, the CD that contains the code samples? I'm finding the book really useful, but don't want to manually type in all of their examples. (If someone happens to have the CD, I would hugely appreciate a drop.io or you send it exchange of some sorts)

The book's site does not appear to have the code samples.

Check the publishers website and look the book up by title or ISBN. Generally programming books have the examples available on the web.

Also check inside the book - every programming book I've read has had their stuff on some website. Can't say you'll be lucky in finding the CD though - perhaps someone here might have read it and has the CD. I'd also ask Amazon to see what they can do.

A: 

Try requesting it from your local library. They should be able to track down a print version for you with the CD. Alternately, you could twitter the authors: Luke or Laura and see if they have a link.

There is a link on this page for chp 2-3

Have you tried contacting the publisher and asking?

The book also appears to be available via safari, and the link to the examples appears to be freely available.
