You're absolutely right. Holy moly, there's books - books and books and books, so many good ones that there are probably too many to read. Here's a trick that I learned early on. Go into a bookstore, and check out the existing PHP books that they have. Look at the reading style, read a couple pages from each, just to see if one writing style is easier for you to understand and so on. Then compare whether the books you like more happen to come from a common publisher. There's a chance that they do. For example, I know people that love O'Reilly books, others that love WROX, and I personally enjoy the Apress books. You might find a particular publisher, author or writing style that you prefer as well. Books are good :-) -- Mitch _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
