As for a PHP book, I occasionally teach PHP classes, and the book out there that teaches exactly the way I do is Sam's Teach Yourself PHP 4 in 24 Hours. I know that the "Sams, teach yourself X in 24 hours" series of books often are kind of lame, but this one is pretty good.
It uses a good balance of explanation and example and has a reference for most of the commonly used PHP commands in the back.I like it because it has more than just reference material and is more than just a bunch of examples. I suspect you'll find it very affordable as well. Oh, one other point, my classes are usually targeted at beginning programmers, so if you're already an adept programmer (especially in Perl or C++) you'll probably find this too basic. -- Matthew Nuzum www.bearfruit.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Thanks to all...too easy.
