As for a PHP book, I occasionally teach PHP classes, and the book out
there that teaches exactly the way I do is Sam's Teach Yourself PHP 4 in
24 Hours. I know that the "Sams, teach yourself X in 24 hours" series
of books often are kind of lame, but this one is pretty good.
It uses a good balance of explanation and example and has a reference
for most of the commonly used PHP commands in the back.I like it because
it has more than just reference material and is more than just a bunch
of examples.
I suspect you'll find it very affordable as well. Oh, one other point,
my classes are usually targeted at beginning programmers, so if you're
already an adept programmer (especially in Perl or C++) you'll probably
find this too basic.
