Don't be offended: SQL For Dummies One of the best SQL primers I've ever read. I STILL keep my copy handy.
Once you get through that and a few thousand queries under your belt, Joe Celko's SQL for Smarties is a great reference. (I recommended it earlier today to someone, dig that out and it's got a URL) Depending on the products in your catalog, this could be a daunting. I've got 1 catalog system that has 10 tables just to describe the products. (All interrelated, makes for a pretty ER diagram!) But if your needs are simple AND well defined, it could be a good starter project. Oh, and don't forget Paul Dubois book on MySQL. I've not yet purchased a copy (sorry Paul) but the parts I've leafed through at the bookstore looked very good. Also, join the MySQL mailing list. (Paul actually hangs out over there) =C= * * Cal Evans * The Virtual CIO * http://www.calevans.com * -----Original Message----- From: Hynek Semecký ME [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 11, 2002 4:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] Catalog Hi list, I am trying to develop a product catalog using MySQL and PhP. A long time I was looking for some tips for the database structure. The idea is to have a powerfull and as much as possible universal DB application. Does anyone have an idea of a book, e-book, site, resource please ?
