Well, the time has come that I am trying to begin learning PHP. For one thing I am bing tasked with building a new website for my school, and I wanted to do it in PHP. Right now I already have a PHP enabled server to test stuff out on.

I dont know if any of you know PHP or not. Or if you guys have any good resources on hand, or know any websites that give good tutorials.

So far i am seeing it has many similarities to C++, which I find quite nice.

From what I've heard, the official php website is the best resource available.
