I did, he now has a link to a Google search result containing lots of stuff about PHP. Whether it is useful or not I could not say.
Well that's my point. There maybe lots of books on the internet and tutorials, but I was not willing to spend my time on reading a mediocre one. Rather as I said I wanted to be directed to a good book on this subject - and that is basically what I asked for. As for the comments of the second person named Andrei: no comments.
best regards.

And how do you define "good"? You can ask this question of a lots of people and get lots of answers, many of which will be wrong for you because they are either too basic or too advanced. You really need to do your own initial research when trying to learn a new subject, rather than expecting others to do it for you.
One of these days I'm going to think of a really clever signature.

Thanks. It was not my intention to engage in some heated debates, just I get surprised sometimes how people can "insult" you or deduce things like whether you know how to use google or not etc. Thanks for the book anyway, but I think I won't be concentrating on PHP anymore. changed my plans. if i need it i know now where to start from.
best regards.

ok. let's skip it it is not worth it anymore, I am not going to continue it anymore. I'm not sure what you meant with that "words fail me", in any case, I had asked a simple question and wanted a simple answer. Maybe I had to better formulate that I was actually looking for a good book (of course there exists notion of good book, i.e., one that is popular and well received in the community - I think I didn't say anything new here). What I meant more particularly with good book, could be a book that is: easily comprehensible, covers sufficiently many details etc. anyway.....

Consider this book ... Beginning PHP and MySQL: From Novice to Professional 4th Edition[^]
This guy cannot even spend a minute to check for lots of stuff that would be helpful. Next, he will ask for a good site to get a project!
