PHP and MYSQL Web Developement 4th Edition Luke Welling and Laura Thompson, I am enjoying it. He starts off with real life examples. I think it wasn't till atleast page 10 of chapter 1, he says the imfamous [syntax=php]<?php echo "Hello, World"; ?>[/syntax]
That was the brief and only time he referenced it. pretty nice think book around 900 pages of highly detailed, instructional,and well explained methods. I also enjoy the fact he gives bad examples and 2-3 other ways of writing the syntax. I will keep you all posted as I devour the info inside.

He's not supposed to share actual text from the book, just share new ways of doing things :)

yeah , that;s copyright infringement. I however do wish it was free, so I could give you all the text.

If you were going to buy a book, I would recomendthis one.

You could give a few examples of things, which would be fine as long as your don't upload the entire thing.

If you straight up exactly copy the words then it is. If you reform there's no harm ;)
