CG> The one you mention, what audience is it for?
The Wrox book I'd say is for novice to advanced; it doesn't teach you
how to program, but it helps you get off to a fast start with PHP
and moves into some of the more advanced topics. It has lots of case
studies, too.
_Web Applications Development with PHP 4.0_ is definitely not a
beginner's book (theory, coding habits, application structure, case
studies). I'd get both (I have both). It also has information on
creating your own extensions.

Erm, you're not thinking in terms of ASP are you? If not, yeah I use
Perl for system administration tasks, but you can use PHP just the
same -- just build PHP as a CGI and use it just as you'd use Perl,
basically.
CG> A good professional book on that?
The O'Reilly books. _Learing Perl__ (Llama), _Programming Perl_
(Camel), _Perl Cookbook_ (Ram), and there's a new one - _Perl For
System Administration_ (Otter?).
In that order. You should probably skip _Learning Perl_ in your case.
_Programming Perl_ is required reading.
And we're spiraling off-topic now.. ;)
