trq Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 You need a web server configured to execute php. Most people starting out use pre-packaged software such as XAMPP, especially if your running on Windows. As for eBooks. I'm not sure there is such a thing. The Practical PHP wiki is a pretty good starting point though.

Proletarian Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 A great place to start is at the source: http://www.php.net. There is a complete language reference there with plenty of examples of how to use everything in context. You also need php itself, which you can get there. Personally, I use Apache for my server on my Windows, but the choice is really up to you as far as local stuff goes.
