I completely agree with asking where to start if you've never really programmed before. I always dealt with bits and pieces but I am too interested in a true beginners path to php.

For example can it be learned completely by itself? I mean should I first understand C+ fundamentals? Should I start learning college level math? etc?

Its one of the greatest turn offs in trying to educate ones self in an area such as programming and in any language, havin to start somewhere else...

If anyone can suggest a good read, a good book that says hey WE UNDERSTAND YOU'VE NEVER PROGRAMMED A KEYBOARD BUT YOU TOO CAN LEARN PHP...

Good start of a question WhiteDevil I sure hope someone is kind enough.

PS. Also the read or book shouldn't assume I am a genius or have completed a 4 years master in astronomical physics... It should be in clear english and not have to require learning a dictionary first... Thanks :)

www.devshed.com is very good.

also, for problems you encounter whilst coding, www.php.net is a dictionary and tool you cannot be without.

If you have msn or icq, let me know your details and I can send you a .pdf of a book for learning php - its advanced but useful :)

PS. pretend trying to teach the abc's to a child... that level of php reference and guide material... Thanks again :)
