A Must Have!
This book is a must have for any PHP wed developer. I find myself referencing this book quite often. It's logically laid out and makes finding just the right function a lot easier then php.net.

Encyclopedic, but no longer online
Fantastic reference book with code snippets for every function.

My only complaint is that although the book was released under the Open Publication license (allowing it to be freely distributed), the book's website (www.php-er.com) no longer contains the book contents.

Let's hope that this great book becomes available online once more, preferably as a PDF file. I'd love to have it on my computer as well as in paper format.

An update to the new PHP 5 release would also be great.

The ideal desktop reference
It's more then the usual printed version of php.net manuals, this book actually give you usable examples along with clear function explanations. The ideal desktop reference for the serious PHP programmer; just not for people that need to learn PHP
