I know this can become a religious topic, but I'd like to pick up some
books on PHP and SQL, so I thought I'd ask here for advice. I'm currently
considering the following O'Reilly titles:

Managing & Using MySQL, 2nd Edition
Programming PHP

My ultimate goal is to produce a web-based DNS Management tool with an SQL
back end. I have a lot of perl CGI experience, but since we've
standardized on php, I thought I should learn it. I see a lot of heat
around the postgresql vs. mysql debate, but not a lot of light; so I'm
thinking mysql is the way to go.

If anyone has feedback on these two books, or think I should seriously
consider other titles, feel free to respond to the list or to me
personally.

Thanks!

Doug
