[HELP / PHP] What Is The Easyest Way To Learn PHP?

[YeImANutter]

HI there,

I know you'll probarly think I'm spamming, or this thread is a waste of time but, I'm in the process of making websites, and me and a mate are putting togther a website or something to do. But the type of website we are going to make highly needs to be coded in PHP, and none of us know anything about PHP. So I need to learn PHP in order to get our website in development and have it published in about 2 - 4 months. So, if anyone knows how I could learn PHP easily, PLEASE tell me where I can learn it from.

Thanks'

I have a book by Dummies if you want it, PM me for the link. You could also use dreamweaver, which gives you the ease of drag and drop and then right click, and php commands are right there.

Buy a book, install a server, read tutorials / reference sites and learn by trail and error .

You just need a lot of practice and try to learn from open source script. Whenever you don't understand about the function or anything, just refer it at php.net

I totally agree, I load other ppls scripts and see how it all links together, really good way of learning

w3school is the first thing you need to read, if you are a total beginner ;P

Thanks for all replyes, helped me out alot .

I've started PHP and I know the following things.
- Displaying Text with PHP script

<?php 
print "TEXT HERE.";
?>

- PHP Variables

 <?php 
$name = "YeImANutter";

print $name;
?>

- PHP Arrays (I think it's that )

<?php

@include("footer.inc.php");

?>

Im just learning now how to make a HTML & PHP form. .

install PHP IDE + IntelliSense, the easiest way maybe but you have to know some basic
