Try "PHP and MySQL Web Development", by Luke Welling and Laura Thompson; only one
thing, maybe you'll have troubles with the form variables, put this code at the
beginning of all book examples
foreach (array_merge($_POST,$_GET) as $key=>$val)
{
global $$key;
$$key=$val;
}
Code made by Alok K. Dhir ;-)
