You know, I was wondering the same thing. My situation is the same. My
opinion is that the professional version probably strips out most of the
beginner's content and adds more advanced php content and dives into
everything in more detail rather than just trying to get a beginner off
their feet by providing simple tasks

Wrox is a great company, they come out with books that are the most
comprehensive. Both versions might be a good investment for hardcore php
programmers. Best thing to do is to just stop by a barnes and nobles
bookstore and start looking through both books to see which one is best for
you.

I've got Beginning PHP 4 (recommended) on the back cover of which it says
that the next book could be "Professional PHP Programming.".
However from what I saw in the book shop they cover lots of the same
ground. I (and my employer) wouldn't like to pay for the same stuff again.
Is there a significant difference between the two?
