Re: hello

My fault for missing the original post... but if this is the discussion I think it is... I'd say if you've already got one language under your belt you can probably learn PHP without too much trouble just by reading the first few chapters of the manual and using the function reference beyond that... If you don't have any prior programming experience, there are some concepts that should probably be taught a little more extensively than the manual covers... you might want to look into online tutorials, published books, etc. --Toby ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stephan Ahonen" <analogy@wheezebucket.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, January 15, 2001 1:13 PM Subject: Re: [PHP] hello > I don't know about everybody else, but I learned PHP by taking a simple, > pre-existing script and upgrading it to my needs by studying the syntax and > putting in new code to do what I wanted it to, always keeping the PHP online > manual at my side.
