I'll second the recommendation of Welling & Thomson's book. It's a great starter with numerous real-world examples, and it includes a CD of all the source code, which all decent books do. I find that I've generally outgrown it already, but they always told me I was a fast learner!

This is what I want to do with. I have had such experience with asp. What are some good web tutorials to teach me installation and the basics of mysql adding perl is always a bonus.
