Can anyone recommend a great place online to learn PHP? Ideally a tutorial/online class would be good.
I found Lynda.com's PHP : Essential training very very helpful for me and i recommend it to you and every one just starting to learn that great language
One of my favorite way is to browse user contributions in the online PHP manual on php.net. You find all kinds of code examples there, including workarounds for PHP's shortcomings. Just be aware that some of user-posted code have errors in them.
