    Post Good newbie PHP site (if one exists)

    I'm interested in learning PHP, but, god knows I cant find a site that doesnt already assume your a PHP COM XML etc. guru. Anyone know a good n00b site for PHP?

    I've never seen one Buy a book, and get some webspace that supports PHP, or install a PHP backed webserver on your local machine, and go to town. That's the best way.
    www.devshed.com is a great PHP site, but I wouldn't exactly say it's for newbies.

    There are some good websites for PHP. The main site at www.php.net has the manual online, and the annotated version has comments and tips from other users.

    devshed has some good articles but, as you say, isn't necessarily tailored to beginners.
    http://www.phpbuilder.com/ is probably my favorite PHP site...lots of stuff there!

    Also, a good book is indespensible. I've been pretty happy with the Wrox book Professional PHP Programming.

    GO PHP! :-)

    I got the "Beginners" WROX book, very nice book for people just getting into PHP like myself. I personally find it alot easier to reference stuff in book form, than webform. I just like reading from real paper I guess
