I must agree with Dan's approach. I've messed with Frontier, ASP, Java and
PHP using this approach and it works for me. I always find that books just
miss out on that vital topic I need to work on.

Set up a small project (I'd recommend something database related) and look
for sample scripts in the manual and elsewhere.
