How easy is it to use PHP? I'm quite out of touch with the web programming after I "mastered" my HTML, LOL. For the record, all my web hosting has PHP-thingy, I can see it the CPanels.
Some php scripts install easily and have good forums to advise you on how to modify. Others are not well documented and require either experience or a lot of trial and error. Little hurdles can include learning how to create mysql databases and learning how to edit .htaccess. Your html experience will pay off since it is used within php scripts, and this is where you often begin customizing. Coding your own scripts in php is said to be comparatively easy. I haven't made that jump yet.
