sgflowers Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 Hi, I need to get a good beginner php programming book which would help with understanding and modifying oscommerce code. I have professional php programming 4 by wrox and i found it to be an excellent reference but a little bit complex for starting from no programming experience and limited html knowledge Does anyone have a suggestion on another book which will take me through some project tutorials to learn the basics? Thanks, kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digi Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 Hello Kevin, When I started to learn php the only book that HELPED me is "Beginning PHP4" by wrox. I was just like you, I only knew html, and a little javascript, I have bought many many PHP book's, and this book helped me the most, I dont think you will find a better book. my 2 cents. digi *Outlined in chalk everone looks the same* Currently useing OSC 2.2 MS1 running on Apache/1.3.27 (Unix) (Red-Hat/Linux) mod_jk/1.2.0 mod_perl/1.26 PHP/4.3.3 FrontPage/5.0.2 mod_ssl/2.8.12 OpenSSL/0.9.6b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamscape Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 when I started using osCommerce a couple months back in November I didn't know a lick of PHP. Reading the online manual at php.net helped me out tremendously with editing the code and coming up with my own.

Guest Posted January 31, 2003 Share Posted January 31, 2003 Kevin Yank's book is great! I bought it just before I started using OSC...I keep it right next to my 'puter and refer to it regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
