Is there a way to purchase the PHP manual as a book somewhere? I'd love to be able to read up on stuff when I can't get on the computer or am at school or something.
download the pdf and take it to kinkos for printing.
Dear Friend,
buy the following books in which you will get the manual
1) php pocket reference
2) php4 developers guide

Also look at PHP Functions ESSENTIAL REFERENCE from New Riders. I have found one function missing but a good quick reference arranged by function type (strings, arrays, MySQL, etc.).
