Product Description
Steven Osborn, Tulsa PHP Users Group, May 2007
PHP Cookbook is ceartainly the most useful PHP book I own.
Product Description
When it comes to creating dynamic web sites, the open source PHP language is red-hot property: used on more than 20 million web sites today, PHP is now more popular than Microsoft's ASP.NET technology. With our Cookbook's unique format, you can learn how to build dynamic web applications that work on any web browser. This revised new edition makes it easy to find specific solutions for programming challenges.
PHP Cookbook has a wealth of solutions for problems that you'll face regularly. With topics that range from beginner questions to advanced web programming techniques, this guide contains practical examples -- or "recipes" -- for anyone who uses this scripting language to generate dynamic web content. Updated for PHP 5, this book provides solutions that explain how to use the new language features in detail, including the vastly improved object-oriented capabilities and the new PDO data access extension. New sections on classes and objects are included, along with new material on processing XML, building web services with PHP, and working with SOAP/REST architectures. With each recipe, the authors include a discussion that explains the logic and concepts underlying the solution.

Format:Paperback
Well written, clear, precise - not full of useless waffle like some guides.
Provides solutions to common problems and tasks, which could be very useful for beginners and users with some experience of PHP. However, this is *not* a "how to learn PHP" book, rather, like the title states, it is a cookbook of solutions with examples.
I can recommend PHP Cookbook, but not as your only PHP text, especially for beginners. I suggest looking at 'PHP and MYSQL Web Development', by Welling and Thomson, published by Addison Wesley - covers the basics and most everything else too an excellent book for learning PHP and MYSQL for web development.

Format:Paperback
I haven't read the whole book yet and all I can say is so far so good. The book is well writen and exmples are well explained for those who have some experience in PHP(not as good for beginners). It solves all the common problems and frequently asked questions on various topics. The best thing about this book is that it has no useless content and it gets straight to the point. Some expamples made me rewrite some of the code on my pages. It's really handy book and I highly recommend it.

I purchased this book a few weeks ago, probably one of the best books that I have bought. Although it may not be for the beginner in PHP, the content is well laid out with plenty of excellent examples.
I now have this book near by as a reference book, I have learnt so many new ways to code in PHP, well worth purchasing.
