Welcome, axanodus!

Personally, I recommend Beginning PHP4 by Wrox... although there are several good books out there.

Good luck to you, and enjoy your stay here at PHPBuilder! 🙂

I would recommend:

PHP Bible 2nd Ed.
ISBN: 0-7645-4955-3

I started off with PHP Bible for the "basics" then went to PHP and MySQL to learn database interaction. Worked great for me.
