PHP Hacks
·
· Score: 2, Insightful
I just bought this book last week. I'm mainly a C++/Java guy but I've been doing lots of PHP over the last year or so. To stay on topic, I was fairly happy with the content of the book. Probably about half of it was stuff I already knew or stuff that was useful but really not PHP specific (DHTML, Javascript, OO design patterns). But there were also quite a few useful hacks that made it worthwhile. Overall, it is good book for thumbing through in your spare time to pick up some new tricks.
Builder - Hopefully you'll see my reply here. I'd be interested in hearing about how this worked out for your company. It sounds like we have a similar system configuration here (Sun/Oracle/Veritas) and we are trying to convince management to ditch the Sun hardware and move to cheaper x86 hardware (and possibly Linux). E-mail me if you get a chance - ericpetroelje at gmail dot com

Can I just cast an anti-vote?
