Rating:  Summary: Read the book, dump their site, then move onto www.php.net Review: I teach an introductory web sequence that includes some PHP. I use this book because it has good explanations instead of doing lite coverage of everything that's done on the web.The book's website is hosed, however. Ignore it as they have ignored my pleas for fixing it. By Fall I'll probably have a version that does what the book says it does. Thin is OK if the book is good. This book is both. As you work through the book, get acquainted with the manual at www.php.net - it'll take you the next step.

Rating:  Summary: Good intro to PHP Review: This book is an excellent introduction to programming on the web with PHP. It doesn't require that you have any programming background before diving into the book. Although it is a little shorter than I would have liked, it's a great book to get you started with PHP.
Rating:  Summary: A Great Introduction To PHP and Scripting Review: This is a very good introduction to scripting using PHP. The books has lots of diagrams and examples. I have worked through several examples and still refer to the diagrams to quickly look up things I forgotten. The code examples are short and have detailed code walk throughs that really help understand them.
