A good place to start with PHP would be at W3Schools.
Learn PHP
This should give you a basic understanding how how the majority of stuff works.

As for building something like scribd, you are looking possibly at creating some sort of Content Management System (CMS)
There is a nice tutorial for beginning to build a CMS here:
Creating a PHP-Based Content Management System

The W3Schools should have all you need to start with including tutorials for file uploads etc.
However the best way to learn, is by doing. Creating a website like this could take a lot of time and patience.
