Thanks Tedd,

Yes that's a good book. Also check out the Zend certification material
(focuses a lot on security).

Also just doing tutorials and trying stuff yourself always helps.

Remember to get a PHP5 book! 

Cheers

[PHP] Re: Learning PHP

[Philip Hallstrom]

I learned from various sites and the manual and just by doing it which
usually meant it would fail cause I'd used Perl's syntax so I'd go find
the PHP equivalent :)

However, I bought "Professional PHP Programming" for some of our
developers who like books.  I skimmed it and it's pretty good.

I would also recommend a book on databases (mysql or postresql -- please
no wars) since most sites use php to talk to a database -- not all, but it
happens :)

Sites:

http://www.php.net
http://www.phpbuilder.com
http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/


The best way though is to find a project that you want to do and hack your
way through it.  Then go back and clean it up, improve it, etc...

have fun!
