i have the urge to learn php and i have the mind for it too i know what variables are and etc but wondering if people had any good tut links i like really simple stuff and dont post php.net i loose interest reading that.
A while back I bought "PHP & MySQL For Dummies" but never got round to reading it in-depth. In the mean time I found a site called Web Monkey which has plenty of short primers for those who want to learn PHP / MySQL!
Buy a php book? lol might bore you, though i find em good resources. Best way to learn is through tutorial experience.
It all depends on who the author of the book is. Some authors really know how to captivate a reader and deliver comprehensive learning material. Others are boring and dry.
