w3schools is great for starting out but I always found it a little bit quick. It doesn't cover too much in depth.

What is a great way to learn is not by reading about all the functions and syntax, that is just plain old boring, I always read up on what I need to do before doing it, don't get mistaken thinking that people know how to do everything off the top of their heads. The best way, I think, to learn a new language is to get your feet wet and then just jump straight on in.

Pick a project that you want to do and then figure out the individual parts that you need to get the job done and use the available resources to accomplish that. That way you keep it all relevant and fun, it gives you a sense of accomplishment when you have built something that you have yourself dreamt up rather than just running pointless tutorial apps.

There are a lot of resources available. w3schools is good for getting a starter, php.net is good for all php but can sometimes be a swamp of info, then good old google to get examples and ideas.

My two cents.
