<snip> Honestly, the best "book" I read when I was starting out, and one I've been using ever since, is the manual. I actually spent $ on a very good php book but I think I've only cracked the cover on it once or twice in two years. Way to go manual guys! :D </snip> I totally agree, I have only used the .chm manual to learn php, but I have a programming background, C/C++, VB, Java, OpenROAD, C#. If you're new to this programming game, then probably a *decent* book will give you a good start. Thumbs up to the manual guys. :) -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php ************************ This message has been delivered to the Internet by the Revenue Internet e-mail service ************************* -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
