Since I am a programmer by trade (Delphi) I purchased "Professional PHP Programming (Programmer to Programmer)" It is a very good book for folks that already have programming experience in any language. I am quite familiar with the syntax as I have been modifying an XMBForum for use on my site. The help I needed on wasn't really as extensive as I first laid out. I have a big part of the work done, just need to tie things together and get access working. I have someone that has volunteered to help and I am quite pleased with him. Thanks for the suggestions, however.
