Yes, the one on AJAX patterns is riddled with typos and non-working code.
I'm starting to understand that the author is more important than the
publisher.  The PHP book by Jason Gilmore (Apress) is good, and I think that
is the one you are referring to.  Get that one.

The last Apress book I read was riddled with typos and non-working example 
code ("PHP MySQL Programming..."). Have you seen any of that so far, Carl? 
I've heard good things about this particular book, but have not checked it 
out for myself yet.
