Hi,
I worked as a reviewer on the recently release Wrox book, Beginning PHP
Programming. It's has exceptionally clear examples, and covers all the
bases. Most of the authors have great writing styles too, and the only
exception occurs towards the end of the book where the examples get very
in-depth. If you've done half the chapters before that, you won't have any
problems.
Best regards,
Andrew
