    Get the O'reilly PHP pocket reference book for the main language constructs:

    PHP Pocket Reference*-*O'Reilly Media

    You can carry this around with you and refer to it as needed.

    Once you have become familiar with the main constructs of the language, the rest can be found in the PHP manual:

    Absolutely should get properly trained.

    Training + practice + blogging + bookmarking = $success;

    Propper training will piece it together and get you forced to type the concepts. Repetition and practice will allow you to hand code OOP php and prcedural php.

    Generally, you have strong html / css skills since PHP extends on this knowledge.

    A quasi-master will know how to edit and hand-code all PHP MYSQL scripts.

    You know you got somewhere when you can handcode complete applications very quickly and faster than using copying / pasting.

    Buy an intro book. Read it. Start programming.
    Google any questions or difficulties you have as they arise.
    Clock up the miles programming.
    In a week, you'll have a website up-and-running.
    In 6 months, you'll be a solid PHP coder.

    Good!!!

    you choose a write option for creating the website. If you want to learn the PHP language then you can choose any institute which provides solutions for PHP. You can handle some live projects over there

    You should also try online tutorial. actually everything is available on internet & you can try that tutorial to examine yourself. One site(w3school.com), which is the best option to enhance your knowledge.

      Hey, Sandycmy,
      Everyone's will give your their own answer to this question. But back in the day, I remember, "Build Your Own Database Driven Website With PHP & MySQL" by Kevin Yank was a decent book.

      Although, I've just looked on amazon and the book is in its third edition but there are a few negative comments there, indicating that the examples contain security holes.

      If I remember correctly one of the examples in the book is a content management system (CMS). That's a massive undertaking from scratch.
      And the readers are warned by the author that it's only an example. It's a beginners' book after all. I mean you can't use it to professionally build such complex systems. But as an introduction it does its job. Combine it with a couple of php recipes or anthology books (and a php security book)and you'll be on your way.

      Peace

    Indeed!!! It is an amazing experience learning PHP and developing a website. It is a challenge because you have to spend time and regular practice which will improve your knowledge and skill of PHP. In this context you will have to refer to an article, go through tutorial and online PHP learning video. W3school is one of the best ways to begin learning PHP.
