So you know HTML, even JavaScript, but the idea of learning an actual programming language like PHP terrifies you? Well, stop quaking and get going with this easy task-based guide! Aimed at beginning PHP developers just like yourself, this volume uses step-by-step instructions and plenty of visual aids to get you started testing scripts, using basic syntax, working with variables, creating Web applications, and everything else you need to know to create dynamic Web pages with this increasingly popular and important scripting language. Along the way, you'll learn about all that's new in version 5: the new Zend Engine, updated XML support, greatly improved streams (now able to access low-level socket operations), a bundled copy of SQLite, and more. Throughout the book, you'll find sample scripts and projects as well as the timesaving tips and techniques that have become the hallmark of the popular Visual QuickStart series. A companion Web site offers all of the book's scripts for download.

Great beginners book for learning PHP
From graduating with a computer information systems degree from a private university I've read a lot of programming books that were way to verbose and rarely gave practical examples. This is where Larry Ullman's PHP for the world wide web differs from alot of other books. The book does exactly what it intends to do, give you a introductory experience with PHP. It presents the information in short chapters, in linear fashion with a lot of real life examples. With how Larry presents the material, if there are areas you don't want to learn about or if there are things you want to learn about, once you get a brief understanding on how the language works you can skip or skip to those areas. I read this book when I first started out with PHP, and it is the one I recommend to anyone who asks me how to get started learning PHP. Also, compared to other authors, this author keeps a forum that has a big following which he does actually monitor and reply to.
