I too learnt PHP using the Wrox's Beginning PHP, Apache and MySQL.. Currently, 'PHP Cookbook' is my favorite..

Wrox one is easy approach to learing PHP but sometimes it get confusing.
For a begineer everything is not explained in this book. But I am using this book.
Other books are
Apress.Beginning.PHP.and.MySQL.3rd.Edition.(it deals with PHP6)

OReilly.Learning.PHP.and.MySQL.2nd.Edition.Aug.200 7

Do a little bit of googling with appropriate prefix or suffix and you will be surprised.

yesterday I borrowed the wrox ed. of PHP book and I feel its better to have some knowledge of HTML,PHP for a beginner..as I am already reading sams book on PHP and MySQl so its a bit easier to learn from wrox . and I suggest to all the readers DO NOT follow wrox as your first book. you'll feel depressed..

for PHP you should have HTML and CSS knowledge. Wrox one is a good book to use but you should know the basics first.
