If you have some programming knowledge, the only thing you need is the official PHP manual. http://php.net/manual/en/index.php

 

Also, if you want to run the scripts on your machine, get an all-in-one installer. A very good one is Apache2triad, Apache/PHP/MySQL for Windows. http://apache2triad.net/

 

There are some IDEs for PHP but the free ones suck.

Books for PHP, mmm.. it depends on your previous programming knowledge, PHP in itself is a pretty simple language, you don't have to worry too much about the environment where your code runs nor about creating user interfaces, etc. But combined with data bases, web server configuration, HTTP, etc. well, in that case I agree, buying a book that includes those subjects would be a good idea.

Thanks CodeFX, I've just begun learning php from w3schools.com, I think theirs is good. I hope to continue. But I've come to realize there's no short-cut to good things. We have to work out upward...
