    What is the best/most up to date PHP and Mysql book on the market today? I am a PHP beginner but would like a book that covers it all.
    Thanks

    Your best resource for any sort of PHP manual would be the official one, available online. http://www.php.net/docs.php
    Quite surprisingly, I found the PHP and MySQL for dummies book quite easy to use and I picked up on it fairly quickly.

    I think you need to go to some ebook share sites, example:

    For ebook: "Beginning Php5" worked best for me. You can also get some free tutorials to learn quickly.
