Subject: PHP Book

Hi,

as there are quite a few PHP cracks here:

could anyone recommend a good book on PHP? I already know the basics and wrote some scripts, but i guuess all of that is either bad style or insecure or both.
Any suggestions? The book should be in german or english language.

Ben

I work in a training centre (I'm just office staff), there's a list of php books on the website with synopsis. Maybe it will help narrow things down a little.

These are in our library there, if you were in the UK they'd welcome you to drop in and browse. I personally use amazon reviews a lot when choosing books.

I have read PHP & MySQL for Dummies from Janet Valade. Generally, this book is good but you need to spend more time than me with this book if you want be good programmer

I was learning a few days and I am able to edit most of the scripts from hotscripts and similar php script galleries and also create some basic scripts like contact form or very easy cms.
