Hi guys.. i just designed my site from scratch on dreamweaver www.imachurchgurl.com but i now want to add a login form for viewers to become a member. I also need a mailing list...i no NOTHING about PHP...i dont even know where to begin...where do i start?? any good tutorials??
Just Google "php beginner" you'll fin a LOT of tutorials. php.net is the official website for php so you can look there too. Good luck
php.net really sucks in my opinion... It does a terrible job at explaining all the functions and how to use them. I have great luck with w3schools.com. They have excellent tutorials. Try this tutorial out, it's a great way to start PHP. PHP Tutorial
You can also try this: http://www.tizag.com/phpT/ and as fireflyproject said, http://w3schools.com is a great one.
w3c is good start point, it has got all the basics you need. and then on for your specific login script I will suggest to refer about.com and thefreecountry.
sams 'teach urself php in 24 hours' is owesome,also u can find book in google. Actually u will learn php when u dong work in practical world.
