rob Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Have you bought Larry's book? I'd say that's a pretty good place to start. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antonio Conte Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 You should learn about normalization and how to structure your data. This is the most important thing in a relational database. It's some theory you need to learn here before using it practically. You should then learn how to join the data again in queries. The JOIN statement is the most important here. These two things are the largest building blocks on how to learn MySQL. When you master that, you can do pretty much everything with a DB. You can find a lot of information/good articles about this online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HartleySan Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 To be honest, Larry's PHP/MySQL book is the ultimate PHP book (in my opinion). It really is the best place to start. With that said, I've heard a lot about Lynda.com, but most of their tutorials cost money. Below that, I suppose random Google searches for "PHP tutorial" might get you somewhere.
