Recommendation wanted: OO PHP manual/book

[W1zzard]

most people use OO PHP to keep their source code more readable and capsulated. i rarely see hardcore OO concepts. If you are already good with procedural PHP, read the PHP OO docs, start using OO for capsulation in your next project, and keep going back to the docs to solve specific issues

This is what I plan to do, write procedurally and make use of OO constructs where I feel the project will benefit. After completing my first web app, I now have much more insight as to how php/java/html/jquery work together to render a page and respond to user input. Things are getting easier as I don't have to look up the synopsis of php and Javascript functions nearly as much as I had to at the outset.

My very first php application is now live, I have tested it to the point risking my sanity. It has to be secure and at this stage it seems to be. I have have tried every injection and XXS attack I can think of and the app is secure.... Until that is someone smarter than me comes along and shows me how lacking in these skills I actually am. I reckon in another 12 months I might just actually understand what I am doing ;-)

I am not going to post a link to the site here, but if anyone is interested in what my first php web app looks like, PM me and I will send a link. Before I started this, I hadn't written a single line of php or used MySQL, although I had built several html sites. This project was my introduction to PHP and MySQL and my client was aware of this.
