Hi, freaks 

My name is Elena & I never write program before. What did prompted me begin to study PHP?

I have internet shop. It was done by professional Web Studio. But eventually I decided to improve some pages, to make site more convenient.  And I decided to do it myself.  So I study PHP seeing into another's code, trying to understand it and changing this code in correspondence with my own needs.  Now I’ve studied a little bit PHP, a little bit MySQL, and very poor CSS & HTML.  But I undestand that it’s wrong way to study PHP because my knowledge  never will be full.  Often I don’t know even elementary things.

Now I begin studying PHP from 0 step by step. I have already found useful information here. I’ve already got this book http://www.amazon.com/PHP-World-Wide-Web-Second/dp/0321245652/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1284562565&sr=1-2

But my site can’t wait until I study everything.  I will be go on improving and changing existing code.

And I hope to find here useful information, advices and help from experienced programmers.

Ps:  Sorry for my English.
