Still making my way through the book but I'm surprisingly absorbing a lot in just a short time from it. Rating: 4 / 5 Good to learn how this stuff works.

I bought this book based on a misleading forum post. I'm a PHP programmer myself and wanted to get more in depth on certain areas regarding the language. If you like confusion, then this book is the one you should get. I couldn't get past reading one page, I tried and tried but all of the drawings, funny pictures of people (what the hell what that for?), and graphical elements I just couldn't, basically impossible. What a mess. Never returned a book to Amazon before, ever, but this one I sent back... It was very disappointing. Just think that a page of this book tries to explain something simple using a Graffiti like form. HUH ? PHP is not hard at all, why make it look like it? Rating: 1 / 5 Well.

Some glitch at Amazon decided my address was undeliverable even though I've been getting packages for 10 years. I was really hoping to get this book because I like the HTML CSS book by the same group. Amazon, please look into this glitch.
