I'm a big Apress fan, and stumbled across their sister designer imprint, Friends of Ed. I then came across a book on building applications with PHP 5 and Flash. I'm on chapter 2, and have already built my first "hello, world" application, with Flash displaying a date generated by a PHP script.

The book is called Foundation PHP 5 for Flash, and is intended as introduction to PHP for Flash designers who don't have that much programming experience. Nevertheless, it's perfect for an experienced PHP programmer who wants to learn about one can build data-driven applications using Flash. In my case, I had to play around with the Flash interface and help to figure out how to do things, but the book took things step-by-step, thus making each step easy to follow.

I'm excited to see what else I discover! I'll keep you posted!
