As I do more work with my website I want to be able to make some modifications to PHP and possibly make new modules. I'm wondering if anyone has some good books to suggest that I can use to learn these and also use as references. These are the books that have gotten my attention:
PHP Solutions Dynamic Web Design Made Easy David Powers
PHP for Dreamweaver 8 Friends of Ed
Build Your Own Database Driven Website Using PHP & MySQL by Kevin Yank
Are these good books or are there others that anyone suggestions? I know in the case of some of the above they aren't very new books
Also, I know one of the above books references Dreamweaver. I plan to purchase Dreamweaver but is it important to buy a book that relates to Dreamweaver or do I need Dreamweaver to work with PHP or can I simply do it with a text editor?
