Re: Login? (O'Reilly Perl DBI)

The book Programming the Perl DBI from O'Reilly is likely worth your consideration.

Caveat: I am not well-versed with Perl DBI, and do not yet own this book, but have had consistantly good experience with the 20 other O'Reilly books in my library, Perl or otherwise.

Yea or Nay from DBI-head Monks?

Programming the Perl DBI is excellent. Buy it. Read it. The only O'Reilly book I've felt I wasted my money on is 'MySQL & mSQL'. That book is nothing more than a rehash of 'perldoc DBI'. For a good mySQL book (if that's what you're using, of course), get the MySQL by Paul DuBois from New Riders. The remaining 10 or so O'Reilly books I have I've felt are good values. --Chris e-mail jcwren	[reply]

yea from me on Programming the Perl DBI It's short and sweet, and it is probably the easiest O'Reilly book I have read. Of course, we're talking DBI here, not Sendmail ;)	[reply]
