Right now I’m teaching myself PHP. It is my first hardcore programming language, and it is going fairly slowly (I don’t think I have an object oriented mind!).

I’ve been using the documentation over at the official PHP site, and my eventual plan is to be able to use CakePHP as a framework for application development.

In the meantime, I’ve been using Chris Coyier’s “A Nice & Simple Contact Form” for my current PHP form needs.

Also, Script & Style linked to this post over at A Comment which seems like it has a lot of very useful links for learning PHP. I can’t wait to get started!

Chris Coyier, author of one of my favorite blogs, CSS-Tricks, posted about a project his firm created for Beacon Athletics, a specialty turf company. Using jQuery’s UI plugin, they created a cool, user friendly and memorable webpage. Go on and check it out! Now!
