Re: good PHP book(s)

I second and/or third this! Professional PHP Programming is a great book. Very clean and a pretty easy read. There is a lot of info and it's all easy to understand. Another book I personally like is PHP Essentials. A much smaller book (in page numbers), but it's proven itself to be very useful. I would highly recommend both books to anyone. That's my 2 cents.
