Ephialtes

I found quite a useful one in PCWorld called PHP and MySQL for Dummies, by Janet Valade. Its a very good book. I think it focuses on working with mysql and php together, it doesnt teach you the basics. But the good thing is you can get some of their examples and scripts from a cd at the back of the book, which is a nice feature. It mainly focuses on making login scripts and that kind of thing, but it is a good book.
