Before I had my first proper contact with Javascript I read an excellent book "Javascript: The Good Parts" by Douglas Crockford. I was hoping for something similar in case of PHP. My first thought was this book:
"PHP: The Good Parts" from O'Reilly
However after I read the reviews it seems it totally misses the point. I am looking for a resource that would:
- concentrate on known shortcommings of PHP,
- give concrete examples,
- be as exhaustive as possible
I already see that things can go wrong.
If you want to close this question: Please consider this, I looked through SO, and Programmers for materials. I obviously found this question:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/90924/what-is-the-best-php-programming-book
It's general, mine is specific. Moreover I'm reading the top recommendation "PHP Objects, Patterns, and Practice" right now. I find it insufficient -- it doesn't address the bad practices as much as I would like it to.
tl;dr My question is NOT a general PHP book request.
