Re: [Sheflug] php and mysql

[Joel Cant <joel [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Best books I have found are:

      PHP and MySQL Web Development - Luke Welling and Laura Thompson
      PHP and MySQL for dummies

can be had on amazon for £35ish for both, very good books for beginners 
and more advanced stuff

And you cant beat having a copy of the php manual handy either..
