PHP in a Nutshell
Paul Hudson, PHP in a Nutshell. O'Reilly
PHP is a scripting language widely used on the Web that most
people will have heard of, and many have used, including
Mstation. O'Reilly's Nutshell series is about being a desktop
quick reference. With some languages this a bit too terse to be
starting of with, and is really meant as a memory refresher.
PHP, however, is simple enough that you could possibly start
with this and use some on-line resources to top up.
This book goes through the basics and then looks through
what the language does by showing code snippets. You will
find that PHP 5 has much enhanced object oriented capabilities
and other, not so common things, like how to print angled text
and draw graphics.
