But when I reach for a paper book for some reason, it's usually because I can't remember something really basic, and I reach for Beginning PHP4 from WROX press. It's out of date, but the concepts are still right, and the basic stuff still works the same way. I haven't bought the newer Beginning PHP5 yet, but if I were going to buy just one, it would probably be that. -Alex
