For PHP I like the PHP 4 Bible by Tim Converse & Joyce Park from IDG Books. For more advanced PHP stuff the PHP Developer's Cookbook by Sterling Highes from SAMS is nice. For MySQL I like MySQL by Paul DuBois from New Riders.

PHP and mysql web development is good. Half way through it right now.

ok, thanks. I would have responded earlier but the comp I was using wouldn't let me log in. I would log in then try and post a message then once I clicked submit reply it would take me to a page that said I needed to sign in.

Umm...why not just buy PHP & MySQL for Dummies? It's cheap and it's obviously easy for beginners.

Has anyone read Sams Teach Yourself PHP in 24 Hours? Is it good book? Would I also need another book for MySQL? Or does this cover MySQL also?
