I have several of the O'Reilly books and think they are fantastic tools. But I don't think that any of them could really be considered as beginning texts. They might be the ticket for someone with a fair amount of experience in one language to pick up a new one. Or maybe if you just have a natural gift for programming. |

The O'reilly books are great but maybe not for starters and very expensive, if you really want to learn get them. |

hiroki, I understand you're enrolled in some kind of course to learn 'webdesign', or something similar, right? |

Umm, I've never used the cookbook series myself but I believe the 'In A Nutshell' is basically just a handbook. It won't be useful at all for a beginner. I'm under the impression that the cookbook series (in various languages) contains a series of scripts you can create yourself and they explain it to you. That could be useful for what you want. |

I learned JavaScript from O'Reilly's JavaScript: The Definitive Guide. However, I had had some experience with Visual Basic before that, and I think that helped significantly. I'm not sure if a beginner to programming could easily learn JavaScript from that book. |

I've got the PHP Cookbook, the PHP Developers Dictionary, and the Sam's PHP web dev book (the big purple and white one). They're all great books - the two o'reilly books especially for reference, but my fave is the Sam's book. i learned PHP with it and still use it all the time. |
