    in response to how long php takes to learn: i went from no knowledge to building a full working database driven program (something to manage a tour page on a band site, this was a few years ago) in about 8 hours one sunday afternoon. I started off with some simple online tutorial that just went over the basic syntax - wish i remembered the address.

    I was still fumbling around for the next three projects or so after that, but there are so many resources online that its really easy to just start doing it. Then if you want to move into actionscript you can have php run the backend and send xml into flash.
