 Are they pretty much the same as the hardcopy versions of the same
books?
Anything different about pdf ones vs. hardcopy ones? Thanks.

Some of the OReilly books are available on CD in HTM, like Programming
PHP.

In my opinion, most hardcopy books with tutorials aren't worth the
money. Most of the lessons can be found either on php.net or at
independent sites dedicated to php. The exception might be reference
books that have a hard copy directory of php functions and syntax. Of
course, you could probably print something like that yourself at
php.net.

I agree with burgermeister01.. Most of the stuff can be found online..
Just google for anything.. I also dislike PDFs (personal opinion) coz
I just cant read and learn stuff on screen. .
