Learning new programming languages is fun but it can be difficult choosing which references and books to use. Most good text book will cost a small fortune and go out of date within a few months and probably wont cover everything you need.
For me the best resource comes straight from the source, for most languages you will be able to find a FREE and complete reference to develop with.
PHP Documentation – Download the complete reference in most spoken languages.
MSDN Javascript – Microsoft have a vast documentation library available on-line.
Mozilla Javascript Resource – Not great but it goes into a lot of detail, maybe too much.
Core Javascript 1.5 from Mozilla – Learn by example, much better than the previous Mozilla link
