Daniel,

Kevork has a good php mysql book that you should perhaps consider (and runs

>  I have developed a unit to learn the basics of PHP.  Not that far removed
> from HTML which we visit in U1O1 and probably more friendly to the girls as
> you can do some nice design sort of stuff.
> PHP also strikes me as being a skill that can be used out there in the real
> world and gets away from those geeky programming languages.
