Ok im a website designer however I tend to do more graphics and thats how i started, I then had a disagreement with a coder and so I now am learning to code and its going well. However I want to take it further, I currently understand HTML, CSS but I want to learn PHP it will be from scratch. What benefits are PHP in my website design and can you give me some tutorial sites or maybe someone has a great site I can use.

 

Cheers

Why PHP, well it depends what you want to do with the website?? If it's just going to be a static site that doesn't change very much then you don't need PHP at all.

 

 

EDIT: I learnt most of what i know (and then developed on it) by going through this site one point at a time

I would say PHP because it makes your website more dynamic

Well php is what makes a site do things HTML/CSS cant do like i tell people HTML/CSS is for laying out content and styling the content but if you wanna do something like process a html form or send data to a database then pull that data or just create a full blown social network or CMS rhen PHP/MYSQL is needed

alright cheers guys will def look on tht site daz
