MySQL & PHP
Home Ask a Question Data Models FAQs Search Site Map  
The combination of PHP for Scripting and MySQL for back-end Databases is very popular, primarily because it is very cheap, and widely available.

It is also possible to run JSPs and Servlets againt a MySQL Database, which provides an excellent option of writing Java to obtain portable applications which can run on Oracle, DB2 or MySQL.
I have listed below the only two books I have seen devoted to this topic.
If you have any experience or comments, please let us know.
