If you develop with Yii, or you are planning to use it, this book is for you. This book guides you on the process of creating multi-page forms. It starts with a basic setup for Yii, and continues with database connection, creating forms, validating, using ajax, using multiple models, customizing look, etc...This book is short, but intense. It is worth buying it.

The book focuses the multipage form with a simple solution, using nothing more than the Yii framework design patterns, the "statefull widget option" and scenarios.
