Good Books/Dev Tools Recommendation on Website Development w/PHP?

[Bozo Schmozo]

Can someone please recommend some good books on developing web sites
(pretty much from scratch) running PHP and the necessary/usual
components required, such as MySQL, Apache and etc?

As well, does PHP have some good IDE I can use? Any books, online
resources or tutorials on developing and getting a web site off the
ground using PHP would be much appreciated. TIA!

For installing PHP/MySQL/Apache on Windows, have a look at

A fairly simple CMS that you might study for ideas and/or to get the basics is

Someone once said that the people behind these books are the ones that
didn't cut it as programmers...

Well I have to admit, there is no excuse for those sorts of errors. None
the less, I seemed to have been able to gain a very large amount of
truly useful information out of it. I actually have quite a few PHP
books and I have checked out many in the bookstore. I still think this
is the most useful PHP book I have ever found, dispite some elementry
code errors. If this were a beginner's book, I think those errors would
pose a more serious problem. But given the coverage of useful topics,
there's no point in throwing the baby out with the bath water.
