PHP Wizard. Recommendations?

Post by ehm »

I'm totally new to PHP and I would like to start with some kind of Wizard product.
There are few on the market that I already checked, but as a newbie to it, it's hard to make a decision on what to buy from $50 to $1000.

Is there any place were I can find independent reviews on this kind of software?

Thank you

Yes. That what I meant. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

I am in my first PHP class as well,

How i started to learn was examine some scripts associate each part to what it does and then take the class after i have a base understanding, Wizards can get mess with with unneeded code and garbage be careful

Never heard of a php wizard before. I think if you want to learn php you should invest in a couple of good books first. And read every thread on this forum.

yea this forum... once I started actually following threads (even if I found them boring at first) my skills kinda just exploded. I've probably doubled my skills in the last month, and doubled them in the month before that. This place becomes an addiction... a good one though.

Stay away from code generators. You'll generally become slightly dependant on them. Companies I've worked for don't like them either.
