Learning About PHP and MySQL

I've been trying to teach myself PHP (among other things) for my latest joblet. Terry attests to its empowering effect, and I do get giddy when I learn something new. Terry recommends Larry Ullman's PHP 6 and MySQL 5 for Dynamic Web Sites: Visual QuickPro Guide, and I will probably have to buy it, but I am profoundly cheap, and have limited book shelf space, so I'm trying to figure things out with free Web tutorials. My inevitable list of links follows.

Good for you! They also had a couple of good PHP podcasts, but they seem to have run out of steam for the time being. You can probably still get back issues.
