As Paul DuBois mentioned, everyone needs the reference manual. But it is just that, a reference manual not a tutorial.

Paul's MySQL book I thought was excellent. I skipped the first first few chapters which went over relational concepts, but it walks through just about everything, including your responsibilities as an administrator. I had my first system up in a month and that included learning PHP on top of MySQL.

I am still getting my feet wet on mysql. I, however have seen the MYSQL
Refereence Manual at the mysql site while I have also seen Mysql
Cookbook referenced or mentioned in the list.

As a true novice starting out, can someone tell me which of the two
would be best suited for a true newbie....


Thank you all in advance
