A good book wouldn't hurt.

a) After just installing Apache packages, read the HTML docs that will 
be present on your computer.  All you really need to know is where to 
place your files.

b) (This should be swapped with "c".)  Learn basic PHP, then learn the 
functions to connect to MySQL.  Of course, it helps to learn some basic 
database theory.  Just search the Web for examples.

c) Look at examples at http://www.php.net  The function search on 
php.net is extremely useful; more so than using a book as a command 
reference.
