tec-4 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Brand new to PHP, but am setting time aside to start learning. I've been a front-end designer for some time and am just making the move to gain some knowledge in PHP. Any recommendations or helpful links that have helped you get your feet wet and the ball rolling? I've picked up a book called PHP and MySQL Web Development by Luke Welling and Laura Thomson and have started cracking at that and is pretty good thus far and am just looking for other references that have helped some of you more experienced people out there. Thanks for the help in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiderwell Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 php.net for an obvious reference library tizag.com has simple examples of many things, like file writing, database connecting etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
web-developer Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 I completed Post Graduation and so I have basic idea on programming languages especially C & CPP. When I chosen the language PHP, I purchased a book http://www.amazon.com/PHP-Bible-2nd-Tim-Converse/dp/0764549553 and it help me a lot. You can find out everything on php.net but for a beginner it is not necessary. And you may stop studying it when you see the long list of functions and most of them are not using always.
