I have been reading "PHP 5 For Dummies" By Janet Valade and it is a really good book, i didnt know anything at all about PHP when i first got it, i didnt even know what PHP stood for, lol, but im starting to get to grips with it.
It takes you through the basics and nearer the end i think it shows you a few common things with PHP (Image Gallerys etc) So i think its a good book for the asbsolute newbie at php.
I also bought "CSS Web Design for Dummies" By Richard Mansfield, which is also a good book for beginners, i havent got too far throguh it yet but from what i've seen its a good introduction to it and good examples.
