Okay I know H.T.M.L, JavaScript & CSS pretty well and know what it means but when it coms to P.H.P I'm just completely lost! (as well as cgi and perl and the others..but thats another forum)

I'm trying to edit my php guestbook and I took one look at the code and screamed!! it uses different symbols and letters, much different from html. Like what is &pb&pb&pb (i think thats what it was, see I can't even remember.lol)

can anyone recommend a good tutorial site on P.H.P

thanks :D

Also, you may want to check out W3Schools' PHP Tutorial (http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp). This tutorial helped me a lot when I was trying to learn the syntax of PHP. You could try the Official PHP Website (http://www.php.net) Other sites you may try include:

http://www.tutorgig.com
http://www.tutorialfind.com

Lastly, you could also just try going to Google and searching for PHP Tutorials. Hope this helps.
