Actually you don't need to do anything with ODBC for getting php to work with mysql, it has native mysql connectivity.
See cliche's post. The best PHP site is....
www.php.net. Most of the functions will have tutorials and user comments, read 'em.
Look up these mysql functions in the function list:
mysql_connect
mysql_select_db
mysql_query
mysql_fetch_array/row/assoc
If you don't know anything about SQL, you'll have to read up on that as well (mysql.com would probably be the best place)
phpMyAdmin is probably the way to go for creating your database structure.
