RE: [PHP-WIN] please help with table again (Best book)

"PHP and MySQL Web Development" by Luke Welling and Laura Thomson I read only 250 of this book but it gave me marvelous introduction to PHP and MySQL. After reading those pages I started doing some eproject and now I feel very comfortable with PHP. Btw, I knew some Pascal and C++ already and that helped a lot as I was familiar with basic programming concepts. > Since you mentioned it, what do you think is the best entry level book > for programming PHP?
