Re: PHP Book?

Hi, i suggest three: o) Beginning PHP4 by Chris Lea et. al. Editors ISBN and so on at: www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/search-handle-form/107-8101819-4534115 o) PHP poket reference by Rasmus Leedorf, O'Reilly. OK 4 a brief fuction reference and fundamentals (it's the best choice when you learn something about php but u dn.t want to go out with a 5 inch manual. o) www.phpbuilder.com they have tutorials from beginners (i.e. php programming with MySQL) to advanced (page caching & compression). I've learned a lot of php on Web.
