I know how PHP works. Classes, methods, visibility, the whole thing. I'd just like a book on using these in practice. Building a front controller, building an ORM or abstraction layer for the database, patterns like observer and IoC, all that. Can any of you recommend something? A physical book I can order off Amazon or an ebook are both fine.

Look at some cook books (although I've never picked one up myself). They just tell you how to make many common tools.
The closest one I have actually looked at like that is PHP and MySQL create, modify, reuse from wrox.
Although based on what you're asking for
http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTitle/P...96703.html might be a better option although I personally know nothing about it really
. But, I like wrox
