Welcome to The Scripts!
There are numerous good books available. Before going into a shooping frenzy, maybe you should have a look at the following PHPm tutorials which are free.
After you have browsed these, you can probably make a better decision on what book you need. http://www.allsyntax.com/tutorials/PHP/ http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/627 http://www.tizag.com/phpT/ http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials.php http://www.minitutorials.com/webdesi...trotophp_1.php http://bmw.ws.utk.edu/nsu/php/ http://www.developer.com/lang/php/article.php/3288671 http://www.w3schools.com
When you insist on a book list, look at the following: - "Beginning PHP, Apache, MySQL and Web Development", E. Naramore e.a., Wrox Inc., ISBN 0-7645-7966-5
- "Learning PHP 5", David Sklar, O'Reilly, ISBN 0-596-00569-1
- "Beginning PHP 5 and MYSQL, from Novice to Professional", David Sklar, Apress

I might also recommend using, when you need help with a specific function, php.net/[FUNCTION NAME], just put your function there (ex. php.net/str_replace will give you information about the str_replace function), you will also get little snippets of code to learn how to use that specific funstion.
Then you might as well point to the (simple) PHP introduction and tutorial in the PHP manual at Getting Started

Hello all,
I am absolutely brand new to perl, but I understand that it is a very
important aspect of web development to create dynamic web pages.
I am kind of short on money, being a college student and all, and I have
looked at several bookstores for books about perl and:
1. I don't know what topics I should be looking for to learn the basics
of the perl language.
2. Most of the books are too much for me to shell out right now...

Hi,
I am planning on purchasing VS2005 to learn C# very soon, and I need good

anything with .NET and only have a very basic understanding of the platform.
Recently, I started working on a large JAVA project at my job (even though I

I've read loads of reviews of best-selling books on Amazon, so I've got
some ideas from there, but I'd be very interested in hearing what you
all think makes a good C# book.
I'm interested primarily in stylistic things - how light-hearted, what

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
