Re: PHP Book

That's not very realistic. Most of us in the PHP Group already have books out there. And your approach doesn't actually sound all that different. The book I just finished, for example, explains cookies by explaining the HTTP protocol and showing requests and responses, and it also covers how to compile PHP with Apache as well as Windows stuff. And besides, most of us prefer to have the online manual be the best documentation available and tend to put our efforts towards that. -Rasmus On Fri, 17 May 2002, Saveli K wrote: > Hello, > > I'm writing a book about PHP that will include things that other PHP > books just don't have, like PHP setup on windows with IIS and compiling > PHP with apache, things like that..
