Hello,

I am a PHP beginner and I'm looking for a book which is descriptive and helpful and would teach me how to code simple hello world scripts upto custom cms scripts in PHP.

What books would you recommend me to read , It must have real life examples as I can't understand without it

Books? I tried them too but it's too boring... I lose interest in a while.
I too started PHP not too long ago and I got right into coding..

php.net is a good resource when you get stuck...

Sometimes a good way to start is to create your own project, and write some specs, and then figure out how to make it happen. Ask questions in php forums when you need help, and don't give up til you reach your goal.

I found this book on SitePoint (http://www.sitepoint.com/books/phpmysql1/) that was really helpful to me when I first started out.

From there, I usually just do a search on a few php boards and find the answer for what I am trying to do.
