When Stig, Derick and I decided to publish a PHP book, our editor proposed to do it as part of the Bruce Perens' Open Source Series. Not only is the series focused on open-source but in the true open-source spirit it is also made available as open-source under the Open Publication License. We loved the idea because it would give our work the widest possible exposure.
A few days ago I was informed that the PHP 5 Power Programming book has now been downloaded over 1 million times. Exposure no doubt. And considering that there are about 4.5 million developers out there, it's safe to say that probably between 1 in 5 PHP developers have actually laid their hands on it (or should I say their computer screens on it).
I'm glad we've managed to serve the larger PHP community by making the book so broadly available. As this book is targeting the experienced developer it's even more remarkable that so many people have downloaded it. The PHP developers community has truly matured.
You can find more information about the book on the Prentice-Hall web site.

I'm looking for the download.. but can't seem to find it??
@anonymous: google the book title and "free download" and you'll find it.
You can find the download here.
One of my favorite PHP books :)
As an owner the dead tree version (which is well worth the price), I would really like to see this in HTML format, any chance of that happening?
Is this book available in french ? Is yes, what is the title, I don't find it ?
This is one of the best books to have for PHP programming, i have it on my bookshelf, i started out with the digital version but i hate reading on the screen so i went to Amazon and bought the book. Loving the book and also love the fact that you put it out on the Open Source Series. I just hope a lot of people support the book by buying a hard copy as well.
That is great! It really is a great book! Congratulations!
Big congrats with this milestone.
Sorry I believe it hasn't been translated to French yet. It has been translated to German, Russian and some other languages though (in case you speak those :)
have you count me in your estimation of 4.5 millions of php developers ? Call me pleas its important for me ;)
Really one of the best books I have ever read about PHP. I was very helpful for me during migration to PHP5. Congratulations!
a good book indeed especially for us migrating from php 4 to php5
Thank you Andi. This book is awesome. First at all I was downloaded it. Then read it a bit, and then I have bought it, because I have totaly like this book.
Will you write some so awesome book dedicated for more advanced PHP programmers? You can write more about the patterns, UML and some development methods (like RAPID or EP)
Congratulation Andi (and all other authors)!
I must say that I didn't finished the book yet (I have the printed version) but what I read until now give me some good ideas about how to use php5 much better.
This is a fantastic book for anyone interested in the use of php5's object model. My book is well worn from cover to cover. I did notice that the php5powerprogramming website has expired as of 8/26/06. Will you be renewing site so we have access to downloads?
I can't help having my own copy of this book. I will add this to my book shelf.

Thanks for this book: it's the best book on php i've found since i am a developer on this language.
I'm also a programming teacher as a job, and i suggest your book to my students, even if they are a little scared by the number of pages :-)
If you are interested in producing some English-to-Italian translation please let me know: i could do it, in order to help some people who are not that familiar with your language.
Great work, really thanks.
That is great. I was searching php book php language for Web site design
