PHP Starter upper

[Anon]

Circumstances have required me to sit down and learn PHP. I know some Perl and some C and I'm having a hell of a lot of problems finding online tutorials and resources to get me on my way with PHP. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm also interested in book recommendations...

Good tutorial web sites can be found here:
http://www.phpbuilder.com/ (good sample scripts)
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/ (installation and beginner scripts)
http://www.devshed.com/Server_Side/PHP/ (more advanced scripts and howto's)

I am using this book, and it Kicks Ass:
Professional PHP Programming, Wrox Press, Jesus Castegnetto, et al.
ISBN 1-861002-96-3
Amazon.com has a pretty good price.
