Hey, yeah, I've been using php and mysql on a job i am doing now
and it really is great. I've been using it for 1 week,
getting help from "sam's teach urself php 4.0 in 24 hours".
The book is exceedingly useful and php is very intuitive
as well a good fun. Don't know too much about the database end..
mysql does what i want it to, and does it easily, so i
use it.
