I've read several books on PHP and looked over a bunch, and a lot are pretty good, but one of the best is this one: http://www.amazon.com/PHP-MySQL-Development-Developers-Library/dp/0672329166/ref=sr_1_13/105-7372205-6120462?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1187661953&sr=8-13 http://www.amazon.com/PHP-MySQL-Development-Developers-Libra...
- jey 19y agoPHP is awful.
- mudge 19y agoIt might be awful but it works well and is easy to learn.
- dfranke 19y agoYes, but it'll teach you terrible habits.
- mudge 19y agoLike what?
- dfranke 19y agoDumping things into global variables. Using regexes to hammer anything vaguely resembling a nail. Thinking in for loops when you should be thinking in higher-level abstractions.
- jamongkad 19y agoThat may have been the PHP of old and sadly it is still practiced up to this day. But I'm telling you man PHP5 and it's implementations will blow alot of criticisms out of the water.
- rms 19y agocome on, let's not get in the habit of modding someone down because we disagree with them.
- portLAN 19y agoI'm modding it down to save anyone from being misled into PHP.
