i intend to.....how long did it take you to learn, and where did you start?
Did you learn it from books?
I have looked at many websites, but i think you need at least a basic knowledge of php to understand their php tutorials

as soon as you got the very basics try to solve other people's problems here.
a) it's nice and keeps the forum living
b) you think about problems/methods you've never seen before
that's what I'm doing here right now
