Hello all!

Is there online tutorial to start learning PHP?
I think, the best to way to learn the tutorial which is step by step to create some site.

I have some programming background.

Thanks in advance!

Get an old computer. Install linux, apache, php, mysql. Grab some of the php applications available, install some and figure out how they work. Keep a link to the apache/php/mysql documentation handy.

I then picked a book from my local library that had lots of code examples and some projects to work on, and I am working through it, it's a little slow because of life and work, etc, but I am making progress
Thanks for reply.
I have installed ubuntu 10.04 netbook edition on my laptop and started learning. Thanks for hint, I will have a look at the local library of php.
Yes, when you have children and work it's really slow to learn :D
