Seems like there's a growing interest in PHP-GTK!

We have developed and deployed applications using PHP-GTK2. We find PHP-GTK2 very stable. We have been running our applications since the beginning of this year without any glitches. 

If you like PHP, I think you will find that PHP-GTK2 open up numerous new possibilities of applications you can build with it. You can leverage on all the libraries you have built for your web applications. You can also do interesting stuff such as interfacing with serial and parallel devices e.g. barcode scanner, thermal printer, etc.

If you are looking for books, Scott Mattocks has written a great book on PHP-GTK: [url=http://www.amazon.com/Pro-PHP-GTK-Scott-Mattocks/dp/1590596137]Pro PHP-GTK[/url]. I think this is about the only book right now in the market that focused just on PHP-GTK.

As for online resources, take a look at [url=http://www.kksou.com/php-gtk2/]PHP-GTK2 Cookbooks[/url]. Complete with demo codes, it shows you that building GUI interfaces are not difficult at all with PHP-GTK2.

[url=http://www.writingup.com/blog/phpgtk2]Ron Tarrant[/url] also has some good tutorials on PHP-GTK.

And [url=http://cweiske.de/phpgtk.htm]Christian Weiske[/url] has some sample applications built using PHP-GTK.
