Re: Learning PHP ... online courses?

[Brent Baisley <brent@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

A few months back I signed up for the O'Reilly Safari Bookshelf. For 
about $20 a month you can check out up to 10 books to read online (put 
them on your bookshelf). Too many times I've bought a book and found 
only one or two chapters helpful. Or bought a book for a specific 
chapter. Now I can just read the chapters I need online. If I find the 
whole book helpful, I'll buy it. O'Reilly provides discounts on books 
for bookshelf subscribers. Something to look into if you plan on 
learning on a lot, especially on different subjects.

That said, I learned PHP by reading "PHP and MySQL Web Development" 
from SAMS. I don't know if it's been updated for PHP5.

Someone else mentioned php architect magazine. I think that's and 
excellent resource. You can just subscribe to the PDF version if you 
want to save some money.
