I used PHP and MySQL Web Development (Welling/Thomson). In my
opinion, it's ok, that the book is written for MySQL as the name of
the functions differ, however, the results you may get in connection
with php are mostly the same.

Furthermore I use Quanta as Editor for the Scripts; you can
integrate the php-documentation in the programm. The highlightning
is alright (sometimes problems, if you are using single quotes).
