Best PHP Guide for a Perl Programmer?
Posted: Thu Sep 18, 2003 11:42 pm
I'm a seasoned Perl Programmer and, after much readin, have finally started to develop all my websites from here on out in PHP for efficiency sake and because I can subcontract maintenance on existing sites easier if they are in PHP. (Of course the client can also find a new developer easier if I code in PHP instead of Perl too. 
Anyway, I've be scouring the web for PHP Guides written for Perl Programmers. The only one I've been able to find is at http://www.phpphanatic.com It provides a good overview of what a Perl Programmer has to know is different about the PHP syntax and command structure. It is pretty bare bones though. My bookshelf also has no PHP books.
I really appreciate it if someone can point to any other PHP Guides written in the context of developers moving from Perl to PHP, and/or a recommendation on the best book to buy.
Thanks in advance!
