    PHP.net manual
    For learning, I learn best with video tutorials, so vtc.com but I also use non-video tutorials like w3schools and tizag.com

    I have the PHP5/MySQL Bible but I don't use it much.

    lol My bad. I listed one book though :p

    The PHP5 and MySQL Bible is your best bet though or maybe the PHP and MySQL for Dummies. I find both to be useful when starting out. I don't like the Bible's layout much though..
