Actually, that gives a 404. Did you mean http://www.kitebird.com/mysql-book/ ? ;-)

The "pages available at Amazon" are, of course, useless - since they are only 
*pictures* of pages. You need extremely good eyes to read the extremely blurry, very 
small print. Though I've seen worse than the pictures for your book!
I do wish Amazon would stop with their stupid "look inside" - it's totally 
inaccessible and a complete waste of bandwidth. They used to have a decent table of 
contents for most (CS) books, which is useful to get an idea of a book's value, but 
these have become rare (and non-existent for books which you can "look inside")


>Otherwise, no it's not available electronically.
