I forgot the "reply to all" trick ;) I pointed out illasaron.com because it's Spanish and there's a Spanish community around. I thought Roly is a Spanish speaker, because "salu2" is a short for "saludos" (=greetings/regards) and he said he's also learning English. Illasaron PHP+MySQL course starts from basic HTML all the way up to session handling, OOP, XML Processing in PHP, building a shopping cart and creating a small CMS. You can download single "lessons" (there are about 50 I think) or the whole DVD as an ISO. I have nothing against nettuts.com, It's just that I prefer facing one challenge at a time rather than three at once (learning English, installing apache+php+mysql, learning PHP). By the time I started with English PHP courses I could understand written and oral English already, and by the time I learnt to install and set up a WAMP or LAMP suite from scratch, I already knew enough PHP to do more than "hello world". It's just that he can learn English by reading eBooks and listening to the BBC (http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/meta/tx/nb/live/www15.asx). He can learn to manually install and set up a full Apache+PHP+MySQL suite later. One challenge at a time avoids frustration, that's just my experience and point of view.
