hitman6003 Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 By far, the best php book you can read is the manual.[a href=\"http://www.php.net/manual/en/\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.php.net/manual/en/[/a]And, it's free.Pick a project that you want to code, start on it. Do internet searches, ask questions on the forum, and read the manual...you will learn more from that project that you will from 100 books.

Squall2131 Posted February 26, 2006 Share Posted February 26, 2006 Beat me to the question! I too am looking for a php book... Had the thought while i was in Barn&Noble to kill some time.. All their books are 45-60 dollars and i figured I'd just buy one online so i know it's a good/well recommended book.Aside from a well written PHP book, i'm also interested in a book that also delves into PHP security as well. I've heard a lot of books out there completely skip the element of security... A shame really. So lets get some recommendations! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaunO Posted February 26, 2006 Author Share Posted February 26, 2006 I really want something hardcopy without just printing out the online manual. Maybe I'm crazy but oh well. I also need something to read while away from a computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
