The W3Schools have some great beginner PHP tutorials.

Remember anything is difficult the first time you start it.

Start slowly, take your time and keep at it.

I still can't find any good tutorials. I found a few that teach me the bare basics, but other than that I can't find any. Most are just too hard to understand (I'm not stoopid, just an idiot) so any simple tutorials would be great!

That counts, if you didn't know HTML - and tried to learn PHP...It would be like taking a trig class before algebra.

Quote: A great book i use is 'PHP for the World Wide Web' written by Larry Ullman.

That's a very good book. I have read the first couple of chapters and I already understand a lot of PHP.

The book assumes you have no programming language.

It actually says that in the introduction.

They probably assume some programming knowledge, maybe you could try searching for a programming introduction then look at how that relates back to PHP... Or have I got it completely wrong and you already know C etc?

A great book i use is 'PHP for the World Wide Web' written by Larry Ullman.

I'm sure a search on Amazon or whatever will find it.

It's a no nonsense book, simple to understand and most of all it's in plain english!
