O'Reily's _Programming PHP_ is a great general purpose PHP book. However, I have yet to find a book that will endow you with knowledge necesary to produce "safe" PHP web-sites. If you don't look into this first, you will most definitely have security holes when you build your first PHP site (which is why we redid the UUG site). X-site scripting is the biggest problem. --Dave ____________________ BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ ___________________________________________________________________ List Info: http://phantom.byu.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/uug-list
