dottzilla Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Although I have been designing sites for awhile, I have always depended on Dreamweaver. I am finding now, while using SiteGrinder Pro and Dreamweaver, that there are things I just gotta know how to code. I am trying to get my first contact form running and I am so new to PHP that I am a tad lost. Can any recommend an excellent PHP reference book for a newbie? I would like to clear the first hurdle by getting a solid, secure contact form running on my site, but I also plan to get a solid base in basic coding so I will be more comfortable taking on new scripting. Thanks in advance to any advice offered! It will be greatly appreciated.
