Default Whats the best book for learning php basics

Hi peeps

Can anyone advise the bast book/ebook to get that will show me from the very beginning as to what all the variables mean and stuff like that...

I have found 2 but the code is different to vb, for example:

an if statment in vb is like this:
Code:
<if condition....> blah blah blah </if>
in the books its:

Code:
if ($score > 92 )
{
$grade = “A”;
$message = “Excellent!”;
}
elseif ($score <= 92 and $score > 83 )
{
$grade = “B”;
$message = “Good!”;
}
elseif ($score <= 83 and $score > 74 )
{
$grade = “C”;
$message = “Okay”;
}
elseif ($score <= 74 and $score > 62 )
{
$grade = “D”;
$message = “Uh oh!”;
}
else
{
$grade = “F”;
$message = “Doom is upon you!”;
}
echo $message.”\n”;
echo “Your grade is $grade\n”;
Theres no <> bracket things and no /if to finish the statement.

So a book that will actually show/teach exactly what the php in vb is about please?

Those if/else statements are correct PHP code. The <if condition=""> are called template conditionals in templates. The is a section in the manual for them:
