This is a very great book for all users, loaded with great information that covers the basics such as functions, arrays, error handling and more. Of course, it even covers one of my favorite things to create, forms and of course one of biggest concerns for all programmers security. However, it doesn't stop there as the authors go into MySQL one of the most popular open source database software on the market today. So if your a person getting into PHP and MySQL this book is a great start and as for those who have been programming in php for awhile, then this book is good use for reference or can be used as a teaching reference if your teaching a programming class. in this book all the coding examples that you will will be either in php5 or php6, since php5 is the current version with php6 a work in progress. It is a good read and if your looking for a cookbook then I recommend getting PHP 5 Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach is worth checking out as well.

Does it have any new stuff for advanced PHP programmers? Because I'm really through reading through all that beginner stuff. Perhaps something like advanced PHP scripts or advanced SQL queries?
