RE: [PHP] Recommended PHP Books?

That is true, PHP has only (18?) ever published books related to it's codes. but I don't think that any of them can be described as a manual. www.PHP.net / www.Zend.com are MUCH better updated that the books about PHP. What I read is what can teach me a better style of programming. A good book for this is "Professional PHP Programming". But once again, it won't really be for you a code reference, it will noticeably help your programming background (your base) using your favorite language (PHP, right?) as the tool on what we learn it on.

I would like to recommend "the PHP manual" as the best piece of published learning material there is for PHP. http://php.net/manual If it is a paper book you are needing, it is also provided in PDF format for printing. -jeremy brand Jeremy Brand :: Sr. Software Engineer :: 408-245-9058 :: jeremy@nirvani.net http://www.JeremyBrand.com/Jeremy/Brand/Jeremy_Brand.html for more - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I am pleased to see that we have differences.
