Re: Want a Good Book for Ref on PHP

Personally, I never even bought a PHP book. I learned from the web only...hehe. First, go to zend.com and check out their tutorial and article sections. Then check out their links section, which just so happens to have links to 17 books, 10 of which are non-english. Check out phpbuilder.com, devshed.com, and phpbeginner.com. weberdev is also a good one. First of course, read the PHP manual. I basically learned everything I needed to from those sites. The rest comes from just hacking out code. PHP changed alot during the books writing process, so it's really rather impossible to get a totally updated book. For instance if you started writing a book now on PHP v4.0.5, PHP would be nearing version 5 before it ever hit a bookshelf. -- Plutarck Should be working on something... ...but forgot what it was.
