After completing his studies, he started working for a web design company. Then, six years later, he decided to freelance. Now that some years have passed as a freelancer, he thinks it's the best decision he has ever taken because it let him work with the tools that he likes, such as Joomla!, CodeIgniter, CakePHP, jQuery, and other well-known open source technologies. His desire to learn and share his knowledge has led to him being a regular reviewer of books from Packt Publishing, including Magento 1.3 Sales Tactics, Openx Ad Server, Drupal E-commerce, Joomla! With Flash, Joomla! 1.5 SEO, and Magento Theme Design. Recently, he published his own book, CodeIgniter 1.7, which you can also find on Packt's site. And since then he has been working on this Joomla! book, putting all his effort into it. To Silvia, my brother, my family, Packt's team, and, of course, to you, the reader. I hope this book is useful to you. About the Reviewers Eric Brown, born and raised in California, joined the US Navy at 17 and became a Preventive Medicine Technician.
