PHP Help

Another question.. What do you think of PHP 5 For Dummies book. Is it a good book to learn php from? and if its not so, do you recommend any other resources to learn PHP from?

I have the PHP /MySQL dummies book and do not like it.

I would recommend: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Head-First-MySQL-Lynn-Beighley/dp/0596006306/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1266763310&sr=8-1

I have came cross that book before but the thing that the reviews on it are not that great. right now I know most of the php basics, but I can’t put all of them together and start making a use of them with mysql. I have tried alot of tutroials on the web but each one teaches in a different way which confuses me. So i want somewhere that is reliable thats teaches php and mysql the right way.

Back with another help needed, more like an explanation. What is the var before the variable. I always find them in classes. Is is a way of defining a variable without a value or what?

class MyClass {

var $some_variable;
var $another_var;
var $one_more;

}
