i dont agree with that. I used the php 4 version and although i found a couple of typos which were misleading generally the book was worth every penny. It is very simple and doesnt go into details so for somethings you will have to use php.net.
looking at the other comments you can see most peeps benefitted from it. I have seen the php5 book and although it is titled php5 it is so simple most of the stuff is covered in php4.
I agree with you dont learn php5 to start with, maybe look for a second hand php4 version. there are many hosts providing php5 yet.
Another thing to remember it doesnt cover all host variations ie php on windows server etc in the examples but for most of the examples it makes no difference.
a good book in my opinion. it will get you started and then you can use php.net for the rest.
hope that helps
