    I used w3schools.com to get my start at programming. It's very easy to follow and will give you a firm foundation.

    yes you can learn many things in w3schools and for some exercises. All I can say is to start from HTML and CSS before you proceed to PHP.

    I won't recommend w3schools as they have got few errors in their tutorial, try tizag [dot] com.

    Before going to W3Schools, check out http://w3fools.com/

    There are many tutorial sites for HTML and CSS (W3Schools isn't a tutorial, it's a reference). If you want to learn programming (PHP is a programming language), start by learning programming. Download Algorithms + Data Structures.pdf and study it. Then download the PHP manual http://us.php.net/download-docs.php and you should be able to write some PHP code by using the manual to get the syntax. The more you write, the better you'll get.

    (Learning a programming language without learning programming is like learning "saw" without learning carpentry. You know how to use a tool, but you don't know what to do with it.)

    Started down the path of writing semantically incorrect, bloated nonsense. See this site for details.
