RE: MySQL Book
MySql mSQL O'Reilly press isbn 1-56592-434-7 is probably the worst book about mysql. Please note that the O'Reilly book was originally suppose to be about msql but near the end of the project they noticed that mysql was gaining popularity on msql so they threw in some information on mysql. Unfortunately it was too little, too late and didn't go through a proper review cycle. The second edition of the O'Reilly book is exclusively mysql and O'Reilly has acknowledged the problems with the first book. The 2nd edition should be out sometime soon with a new title. The best reference book on MySQL is still MySQL by Paul Dubois. - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

Re: MySQL Book
Ok. So majority is towards Paul DuBois. I went to the http://www.newriders.com/ to see about this book and found that this book was published in Dec 1999. Is new edition out. Is it good enough for new version of MySQL 3.23.39 / MySQL 4.0.x. I do not want to buy a book that is outdated or going to be outdated.

This is a good book. I use SuSE 7.3, but get a lot of information from 2 books I favor written for SuSE 6.3. __ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE video emails in Yahoo!
