Yeah...a good book, one I use off and on (reference) is PHP5 & MySQL Bible (approx 1400 pages, I think), other than that...just download Apache/PHP/MySQL, and run through some tutorials over the internet. Also, just download some scripts that you're interested in (nothing too advanced), and try to disect it and see what does what. Also, as I learned, it is a good thing to have a smart friend to help when you can't figure something out
