    I'd say go ahead and start learning! That is about all I knew before I started learning PHP. It does take a little while for your mind to start thinking like a programmer but it will come with practice.

    Good luck!

    As others have suggested there are many good books that you can pickup. I preffer some of O'reileys if you can get them. A good place to start is to pickup an open source program and find out how it works and make a modification to it.

    Buy a lot of Tylenol. My scripts give me headaches when I can't figure out wtf is wrong with them.
