The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
As of 2008 (the last year of support for PHP 4) there was a 50/50 split between 4 and 5. As of right now it is 90-10, which basically means 100% since that last 10 percent will be stagnant web sites. And you cannot take what publishers are offering as an indication of adoption. If that is the case then Java 1.2 is still going strong

Thanks, Bryce!
I will definitely take advantage of this.
However, I want to caution folks. I read the comments, and one in
particular caught my eye especially considering the conversation we just
had here:

The main problem with the PHP Anthology is that it is based on the PHP4
version. The OOP of the version is totally different from the PHP5 wich is
generally used nowdays. I don't know what the other books/video lesson
offer in terms of the PHP but if they're still using PHP4 then it is just
waste of money.

This goes directly to my earlier point that lots of what is out there is
PHP4, even though PHP5 is over six years old. The adoption of PHP5 has
been very slow.

Also for those who don't know... sitepoint.com is a great site for
learning and keeping up with the latest in web development. If you see
any of the other sales at the url Mike provided but are sad you missed it,
be patient and sign up for the news letter. Last year on Day23 of the
sale they opened up all the previous deals for that day again back to the
first day of the sale. On Day 24 last year they opened up all PDF
versions of their books for $4.95 a piece. So if you only want 1 of the
books listed in a bundle, sit tight, you'll get your shot at a great deal.
Thanks for sharing this Mike. I should have shared this with the Web400
List long ago :D
