I also use this book and Its really handy. It does cover the basics ofI was probably getting a little ahead of myself including 'advanced' coverage in my criteria anyhow :-)
PHP and MySQL but it also gets into the thick areas too. I don't think
I'd call it advanced though.
I just wasn't after something that went into too much detail with basic language stuff like scope, writing functions,
arrays, loops, conditionals etc etc.
I'm hoping to start doing a little web design/development on the side while I'm studying (CompSci) and wanted a good book that delved into some meatier areas to pick my skills up a little, like e-commerce and database driven stuff. I also have a little pet project (web based chat app) that I want to work on in the hols. It looks like the mentioned book may definitely be one to check out.
