Yeah, the O'Reilly folks told me a year ago that the knew the book was
bad and that they had someone working on revising it. Apparently they
lost interest.

But don't worry. Paul's "MySQL" published by New Riders is
excellent. It covers all but the newest MySQL features. Certainly
worth the money.

Just PHP, or PHP and MySQL?

If PHP and MySQL, I've heard good things about "PHP and MySQL Web
Development". Haven't read it myself, though. But the Amazon.com
customer feedback is pretty good.
