Diving into PHP – the series
These days I found a great PHP tutorial series called “Diving into PHP”. It is made by Jeffrey Way from Theme Forest and it has 15 episodes till now. It starts from scrach and slowly builds up to advanced topics that is why it is great for PHP beginers and for advanced users.

Thanks for the videos.
It’s a great tutorial videos for the PHP newbies.
If you want to create web application with PHP online, you can use online IDE like coderun.com. It allow you to create web applications with no need to install any software on your computer and also allow you to debug client/server side online.
After Day 1 I’m inspired. Been trying to make the print–>web switch and need all the help I can get.
Thanks!

I got into php when I was making HTML websites. I used it to read user input to add to web pages. That gave me a way to allow a client to update events on their homepage for example. But then I got into WordPress Themes and php is all over the place. These videos can get a little super geeked but there are good things for beginners in there – definitely worth a view.
Very, very useful post you have here.
I started using PHP a couple of years ago, but didn’t really go into any training for it. This series of videos is giving me revived interest.
Thanks for sharing!
