for beginners. I've been browsing the group for a little while. I honestly
have not gotten a book to learn php on. just wanted to learn and see what
you all were saying here. I'm not going to ask question about php since I
haven't started yet, My question I am going to ask is this. What book would
you recommend for the very beginner. I know you had to start some where ;)
Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
I am a beginner myself, just getting started in PHP. The book that I
have bought is called "PHP 5/MySQL Programming for the absolute
beginner" by Andy Harris and published by Thomson Course Technology
ISBN 1-59200-494-6.
There is a website on the back of the book which might be some help,
http://www.courseptr.com. Although there is a CD with the source
code, and versions of Apache, PHP 5 and MySQL, I have downloaded the
latest version of these apps, so the code has changed slightly, but
not so much that you can't figure it out.
Regards,
Douglas

The two I have are:
"Professional PHP Programming" by Castagnetto, et al, Wrox, ISBN 1-861002-96-3
"Core PHP Programming" by Atkinson, Prentice Hall, ISBN 0-13-089398-6
Both are good (and thick!) and while there's quite a bit of overlap, each has
some unique perspectives. In addition to those, I also use some educational web
sites for quick crib sheets:
<http://www.htmlgoodies.com/beyond/php/>
<http://www.phpfreaks.com/>
<http://www.phpworld.com/>
<http://www.phpbuddy.com/>
There are others, as Google will attest...

When I expire you will find my hands wrapped tightly around the throat of a
Windows network administrator.
I had PHP installed on a web server, and all was working OK, save for one
small thing. phpinfo() indicated that the path to the php.ini was c:\WINNT,
which it was not. So I copy the file from the c:\php directory to the
c:\winnt directory and restart IIS. Now, when I click a link to take me to a
directory with an index.php I get a 404, not found error. If I refresh the
page shows up just fine. So I remove the ini page, start and stop the IIS
server, click the link, and no problem...the page is delivered just fine.
Has anyone experienced this behavior before, and how do I fix that damned
path to the ini? TIA!
