Hi.. where can learn php?

Regards

Try www.php.net!

There's:

W3School Tutorials:

The official PHP website, with manuals on its functions:

http://php.net/

You can buy a book:

In my opinion, I think the official php website and a book is the best bet .

100% agreed with Chris. If it wasn't for good php books and php.net I wouldn't know a thing

buy a book in amazon, of php.net from i come there, only learn basic.
Thanks

I started by reading books and then browsed the php.net documentation.

I don't know about your library, but my library has quite a few books on PHP and PHP & MySQL development

Same here.. And I see my self growing up day after day.. I think that the best way to learn php

Of course the only way to really learn the techniques ans standards is to try and make a program, fail, and use Google to get the answers.

I've learn more from fixing bugs than I have from any book

Personally, I pick a script/program to write and I write it, looking at the php manual for help. Since I have programmed for 7 years in other languages, and have modded forums a few times, it hasn't been too hard to learn. I wrote a tutorial on how to write your own class-based recursive search, which was fun. I accidentally kept searching '.' and couldn't get past it; it was pretty funny once I realized what I did. In fact, I had to write logging into the script just to figure out my problem at first. XD

So I have to agree with DrPoodle. Try, trip, get up, and try again. You'll learn where not to trip pretty quick.
