Re: php book recommendations?

[Damacus <damacus@bastion.yi.org>]

I really think Julie C. Meloni did a really good job with her books 'PHP
Essentials' and 'PHP Fast & Easy Web Development'.

F&EWD is nice, in that it uses numbers and really breaks down each script,
though it covers material over and over again.

I personally prefer the other mnost, but either one will go a long way to
introduce you to the language. After her books, go for the PHP Bible or the
PHP Developers Dictionary.. both are really good.. as well, if you want
another good reference book, with project/task based information, check out
the 'PHP Developers Cookbook' by the same people.

Regards,

Mike
