Re: Want to learn PHP Programming?
Well, of course, to be perfect in PHP programming, you would have to spend a lifetime learning and using PHP, so get the idea of "perfect" out of your mind immediately. In order to become competent in PHP programming, my best recommendation is to take several college courses in programming, including at least one in PHP specifically. But that isn't practical for a lot of people, so next I would recommend acquiring a good book on the subject, in addition to using the vast resources of the web. Just use a search engine and input the search terms "php" and "tutorial" and "basic". Rather than pointing out some specific website, I strongly recommend that YOU do the research and read MANY DIFFERENT tutorials. There is no single resource that will magically make you "perfect" in anything.
Re: Want to learn PHP Programming?
If i may suggest you a book:
"CORE PHP Language - by Leon Atkinson", Publishers: Prentice Hall
It has been a great help for me and i keep it by my side for reference purpose.
Perhaps the best book on the subject - atleast the best amongst what i have heard of or read.

PHP.net is a url to bookmark; if you want to know about a function or about php then you will find it there;James_Smith wrote:So, share important link resources about php programming or programming tips.
If you're just starting out don't (imo) try to build database applications yet. First understand the basics - syntax, loops, functions. As you learn more, and you will only learn more by writing code, move onto more advanced things. Search the internet as califdon suggests because even though books are an excellent source of information they rarely give you all the information. You can pick up a lot of stuff from forums such as PHPDN.
writing code and asking questions is a good way to become a competent developer

Re: Want to learn PHP Programming?
I am also thinking about to start with w3schools.com to clear my basic concepts. Will it really help?
Re: Want to learn PHP Programming?
w3schools is terrible and full of worst practices. Avoid it like the plague. Check out PHP: The Right Way or The New Boston instead.

Re: Want to learn PHP Programming?
I think you should join any institutes for the to learn Prefect PHP they provide training from basics PHP to advance PHP with correct guide lines or you may learn PHP form online tutorial or site. They also give proper guidance so it becomes easy to learn for you. These sources help you to learn better PHP programming knowledge. Both sources provide you step by step training which will be beneficial for you when you work on live project.
Re: Want to learn PHP Programming?
There really aren't any shortcuts. Learning programming takes time and becoming somewhat good at it takes years. That said, the best PHP resource I'm aware of is PHP: The Right Way. Start reading, start building, and ask lots of questions.
