PHP Programming - for beginners and professionals

Did you know that co-founder Christopher Scollo is a published author? He'll hate me for putting these live but I can't resist :-)

That's Chris on the far right - bobbing up at the end.

In this one he is at the bottom on the left.

The book is from 1999 so not a recent activity but at least it shows we do have one talented programmer on board. The last time I tried to code something, I managed to create an infinite loop and brought the Kelkoo servers down.

I'm sure Chris will give anyone a free book if you ask nicely.. (err.. can't promise anything!)

Well, it just so happens I'm looking for a newbie's guide to PHP...

I was in Borders on Monday - went in for a book on PHP, came out with one on DOM Scriping. Oh well!

WOW!! I didn't know I know somebody famous. Well, I do not know Christopher personally, but we have been exchanging a lot of business emails. I can tell you that from his emails, you would know that he is a learned man not to mention a gentleman :).

Do not be embarrassed Christopher, you should be proud that at such a young age you have accomplished so much while other people are still languishing in their youth:)

You know I wouldn't have thought it by his casual deamur but I think Chris just might be a ladies man. :)
