Re: OOP & OOP Books

I would venture to say that most web applications are built with a
combination of procedural and OOP code.  And, the smaller the project,
usually, the less OOP code that is used.   It really depends on what you're
doing as to what mix you use.  There are some theoretic advantages of using
OOP design, but sometimes, procedural code just works better, faster, and is
easier to build.

As far as the concepts, I don't know of a book, as I hardly ever read them.
However, I'd recommend starting with these articles:

http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=605374&seqNum=2

http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=24607

And, then read over the OOP documentation at PHP.net.
