I've been a programmer for a years. This book is geared towards a beginner. Not just at PHP or mySQL. A beginner. Period.If you know programming and wanted to bone up on PHP and mySQL, look elsewhere.I am.I wouldn't know how to rate a beginner book, so if you are a beginner, read the other reviews.As a beginner book, I guess it's ok. For veterans, it's not going to get you going fast in PHP.Your eyeballs will strain moving back and forth and your brain won't get fat with knowledge.I wish books were forced to be rated. Even a ratio of eyeball movement / information would be helpful.Next time, I'm going to go down (like drive) to a bookstore and check it out before I buy online.
