When I was learning, this community helped me a great deal become the programmer I am today.

I have been trying to learn for 3 yrs.
I learned 3d myself in less than 8 months.. And no I don't suck at it.. I for some reason cant get my fingers around php and MySQL. I have always wanted to learn but cant for some odd reason.
I hope to be here and learn, A lot of people say they learned a lot on this forum.. Hopefully I can be a success story from this forum also.. Cause I don't no much about php.
I took the php test on w3school and got an 18 or something out of 20. So I have the concept but cant comprehend it.

Hi,
I strongly suggest a video tutorial. I used this one - http://movielibrary.lynda.com/html/modPage.asp?ID=145 and it had me understanding code within the week. Once I'd covered the video tutorial I moved onto being a board stalker and seeing common errors. I've also purchased a couple of books from Amazon covering PHP security and PHP hacks. I've still got a long journey ahead of me but I think I'm learning at a good rate.

I agree with you. I can learn Php from beginning, and now every day I want to work with Php, all I can do because this forum. I remember that my first question was very stupid but it was answered.impulse() wrote:Once you've covered the basics you'll notice yourself coming up with ideas on the spot and you understand how it will fit together. It doesn't usually work first time and I find myself getting stuck on a problem but I ask questions here and the problem has always been resolved.
And then I tried to learn and think till I can't resolve it or can't find mistake, so I ask.
Thank all for help me!!!
It all depends on how much time you got to learn php....if you want to be good though I would suggest spending a week at going through (reading with understanding!!!) the php manual...top to bottom and trying most of the examples there. Then get a real problem, task, and try to solve it. Well...it all depends on how you best learn of course...but this will surely give you some very solid ground on the language.hrubos wrote:I agree with you.
