but matt I was wondering if you could point me in the direction of some good sites for php tutorials or whatever you used to learn off of. I'm working on building a match reporting system that allows you to upload screenshots of your games with the match info. thx.

PHP tutorial

Submitted by matt on Mon, 18/04/2005 - 14:56.

I learnt with this book - PHP and MySQL Web development: http://www.deepblue.uk.net/modules.php?name=Amazon&asin=067232525X

which is a pretty good starter.

I have also got the PHP Cookbook http://www.deepblue.uk.net/modules.php?name=Amazon&asin=1565926811 from O'Reilly which I dip into.

There are some really excellent online resources. First call is usually the online php manual. It doesn't always solve the problem but the comments at the bottom of each page are good. http://www.php.net/

I also find the tutorials at PHP Freaks very good http://www.phpfreaks.com/

and also here:
http://www.webclass.ru/eng/Tutorials/PHP/index.html

You can learn too from looking at the code for the php classes via the site http://www.phpclasses.org/

There are many more sites e.g.

http://www.phpbuilder.com/
http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp
http://www.zend.com/zend/tut/

but those are the ones I use the most. As always Google is your friend and enough time spent googling around will solve your problems. I am by no means an expert but do post a question here if you want.

If any others have some good php resources to share please post 'em :D
