Hey all,

I am not sure if this is the right forum, I hope so, otherwise please move it.
Anyway, I am quite frustrated at the moment, I've been searching the net over 4 hours now, trying to find good tutorials introducing a newb to oop in PHP5, but am really out of luck, as it seems. Does someone here know a good tutorial, suitable for a total oop newb, explaining with PHP? I have had a look on php's site first of course, but they explain in a bit too advanced manner for me, and most other tutorials do so too.

Good links (to books / tutorials) would be very very very much apreciated ,

Thanks a lot for reading, and perhaps even helping ,
Max

Did you take a look at the one on php.net?

It's pretty complete. www.php.net/oop5

I think i read a book called "PHP in a Nutshell"
Im sure that had some good examples... Do you live near a library?

Nicos link is very good to... just look at the examples and read, read, read

Good Luck,
Lex

I use the O'Reilly PHP Cookbook Second edition and the PHP5 & MySQL Bible. The first one is defenitely better than the second one

PHP In a Nutshell (or something very similar by the same author) is offered free online as Practical PHP Programming. There's a good long section (Chapter 5) with an introduction to OOP concepts and implementation in PHP 5.

On a side note, does PHP In a Nutshell deal with OOP in PHP 5 or PHP 4? The book was published back in 2005. I've never actually seen a printed version, I've only read the online counterpart.

Thanks for all the great help guys. I think I am going to go with the php.net site and the hudzilla php wiki as Walkere suggested it. I just don't have so good experience with buying books (mostly outta date) and I don't live near a library with a big choice of programming books.

Thanks a lot for all the help guys, again, wonderful place

Thanks,
max
