    When I was in basic training for the army, my parents sent me: PHP 5/MySql Programming for the Absolute Beginner. It was really good book.

    You dont really need to buy any books to learn this; there are plenty of online references that show you, from start to finish, with examples exactly how it works, but without the fluff. If you stick to reputable sites they generally keep to good programming practices and you can bookmark the site/work at your own pace.

    Tizag has some easy to follow on both PHP/MySQL; its a great place to start off and just work through the exampels.
    I would suggest doing them yourself, and then changing them about a little bit to find out what they do, and how
    they do it.

    http://www.tizag.com/phpT/
    http://www.tizag.com/mysqlTutorial/

    Dont forget to take a look at any function used as well; http://www.php.net/


    These are also pretty good starting points;

    I have purchased many of the books discussed here when i started to learn PHP, and none of them really helped much. What I recommend is to just dive in, you wont kill yourself, and just see what you can do.
    Believe me, you will thank me for this advice.
