I haven't taken any classes on programming, so I was a rank amateur last July.
I've hand-coded HTML since 1995, but this is my first real language.
Julie Meloni's "PHP Essentials" got me up and running so I could complete
two sites with MySQL database connection.
Folks from this list and Leon Atkinson's "Core PHP Programming" are getting
me through the next site, which is strictly PHP/HTML and tracks 350+ variables
over 8 (4 in, 4 out) pages. After a 15 minute study between the two at a
book store,
I preferred this book over "Professional PHP Programming" because of the many
examples cited in the book (and listings on the CD) and the author's easy
style.
I have only 700 more pages to go, too! ;)
