Comments on: SitePoint PHP Anthology Out http://www.stuffbysarah.net/2007/11/01/sitepoint-php-anthology-out/ PHP, WordPress and Business Ramblings Mon, 19 Jul 2010 13:44:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Sarah http://www.stuffbysarah.net/2007/11/01/sitepoint-php-anthology-out/#comment-11456 Sarah Mon, 05 Nov 2007 11:18:46 +0000 http://www.stuffbysarah.net/2007/11/01/sitepoint-php-anthology-out/#comment-11456 This book is a lot more intense (although good) so a good grasp of the PHP basics is definitely needed. I'll admit I'm (very) slowly making my way through it. Well actually I've not got much further than chapter 1! (and I've had the books for 18 months!)

After what you've said and what Will has just said I've now connected the dots (by checking on the <a href="http://www.sitepoint.com/books/phpant1/">PHP Anthology Vol 1 and 2</a> page, and realise that the previous 'PHP Anthology Vol 1 and 2' books relates to this new one. I have these two already. I just didn't connect these 2 with the new book (despite both being the PHP Anthology). I figured Tips, Tricks and Hacks was an intermediary version. Ahh well, never mind :) It's still worth buying for anyone who's learnt the basics and needs to move on. Shayne, thanks for stopping by and leaving your comment.

Certainly worth getting if you like the SitePoint style. I've a bunch of SitePoint books including the first in the PHP Anthology series.

It was originally published back in 2004. For those who purchase the book we'd love to hear your feedback... There was a first edition but it was split into two volumes.

The free chapters aren't the first few unfortunately, however the contents read well. Still it's on my wish list for Christmas :D I've seen a couple of people mention the first edition today so I guess there was one!
