Dymamic site - book recomendations

[datsomset]

Hi,

Can anyone recommend any books for learning PHP for beginners? I have HTML experience, but have not done dynamic sites before. I want something that will take me from setting PHP onto MDW8 through to setting up databases and working them through PHP. There are so many on the market, it's difficult to decide on something that will be at the right level and of use throughtout building the site.

Any suggestions appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

Thanks for the recommendation. I have ordered David's book 'Foundation PHP for Dreamwesver 8', which seems about exactly what I was looking for; a beginers guide through to building dynamic websites using DW8. Thanks!
