 * I know this is not about wordpress but i don’t know where eles to ask. I am new
   to PHP development and i want to buy a book. I have settled on
    _[Learn PHP, MySQL and JavaScript](http://www.amazon.com/Learning-MySQL-JavaScript-Step---Step/dp/0596157134/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1327371900&sr=8-1)_
   by Robin Nixon but i’m feeling a bit apprehended because the book is (roughly)
   3 years old. **_Can i still use it now ?_** I know nothing about mySQL and JavaScript
   though i can understand PHP a bit.
 * Thank you

 * Reviews on Amazon seem favorable. Just to be clear, you don’t need to be a PHP
   expert to use WP though.
