I would like to learn PHP-OOP. I tried Google but most of what I
found was from back when PHP5.0 was released. Will someone please
recommend a semi-recent book/web article/tutorial to get me going.
Thanks for your help,
Tom

Any good PHP5 book will do.
It is less a syntax problem, but you need to learn how to use
objects to solve your problems/meet the requirements.
Then watch out, your book should not bother you with PHP4 syntax.

PHP5 is not enough, it should be 5.3 at least... Many new patterns make
more sense with newer versions. For example, traits are ideal for adding
logging capability, then lambda functions, namespaces...

I agree with Tom - any decent book on PHP 5.0 is good enough to learn OO
techniques. Other things like traits (which weren't introduced until
PHP 5.4) and lambda functions aren't necessary and can confuse a beginner.
