My website is on a UNIX CGI plant form. I'd suggest PHP. Perl, PHP and to a lesser degree, C and Python, are the popular languages for doing interactive web development on Unix/Linux. I admittedly haven't played with Python yet, but PHP is quite easy to pick up, and from what I've seen of JavaScript, will probably be the closest to what you're used to. YMMV and everyone here will have different suggestions. :^) The aforementioned MySQL: The definitive guide... by Paul DuBois, published by New Riders, is where I first picked up PHP, and seems to be a most excellent book on MySQL in general. :) http://www.nerdbooks.com/item.php?id=0735712123 Good luck! -bill!

Re: [mysql] Which is the best MySQL book?

I haven't read it front to back, but I have an affinity for New Rider's MySQL by Paul DuBois. (It's where I picked up PHP, and has been a useful reference for me these days, as I work as a newbie MySQL coder :^) ) I've also got O'Reilly's MySQL Cookbook (also by DuBois) sitting here on my desk, and have found it useful to get some real-world questions answered quickly. 'course, I'm working at a tech. book store right now, so I'll no doubt start poking my nose in the dozen other titles we have sitting on the shelf here. :^) -bill! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Got kids?

I think this depends on how big the database will be, how much it will be hit, etc!!! I've heard of MySQL being run on the 200MHz StrongARM based Sharp Zaurus with only 32MB of RAM and 32MB of 'disk' space. :^) I doubt that could handle a popular e-commerce site, though. Let us know what you think the strain might be on the database itself, and folks here will no doubt have some suggestions of the kind of iron that can handle it.
