Hi,
I've realised just how rusty my knowledge of PHP 5 and advanced PHP programming is after completing some questions for a test.
I seriously need to read a book or something.
Any recommendations for PHP 5 books?
A:
This amazon search yields some useful results. To be honest I didn't expect there to be OO books based on PHP.

Why not? There's plenty of OO frameworks around now.

A:
I read PHP Object-Oriented Solutions by David Powers. I'd recommend it if you have little knowledge of OOP programming in general, otherwise there may be better books out there that I don't know about.

I recommend "PHP Objects, Patterns, and Practice" by Matt Zandstra.

I've been going through PHP In Action, http://www.manning.com/reiersol/, which has lots of good examples covering a wide variety of use cases.

I second this, it's written by a lot of good developers (inc. Marcus Baker who I just saw at PHP UK Conf 2010) that used to (and possibly still do) frequent SitePoint's PHP Application Design forum.
