Name's Tamreen, 16 years, male, I started PHP in June, then in August I went into overdrive. Much of my knowledge came from working on a project. Sure a tutorial can teach you how to work with a form or database, but doing a major project really helps you learn how to actually work with a language, not just use it.

Brad, 26, Danbury, CT.

I learned html about 10 years ago, when my fathers business needed a website.

I would go to sites that I liked, view source the pages, and figure out what in the code made the page act the way it did.

I have a few of my early site versions on a hard drive, and laugh when I go back and view them now.

 

Viewing page sources worked great for learning html and javascripts, but when I needed to make the site dynamic, books and forums taught (and still teach,) me a lot!

 

Thanks EVERYONE!

Well, I for one would like to welcome all the "newer" members who have been becoming more regular. It's great to get to know everyone a little better through this thread, and I hope you all will remain regular to the forums. I can vouch for the fact that you'll get much more satisfaction from the community from a long stay than just popping your head in to get a question answered here and there ;)

Ole, Norway, 23

 

I tried out PHP about 1-2 years ago.. but I stopped completely making website... But I picked it back up around the time I signed up on phpfreaks.com... And all I knew about php at that point was  <?php include(); ?> hehe... so basicly, when people asks I say I started a week ago =) and then a couple of days ago I started trying out MySQL to... so I'm a real rookie... but I'm working hard to approve my PHP knowledge =)

Steven, 17 (18 in December). Junior in HS.

 

I'm a guy, learned PHP two summers ago by myself and through an online class at my local community college. I'm learning Java right now, and I've (fully) known HTML for about three years (not including the years I just knew the basics). The AP Computer Science A class at my school has one girl; the other 15ish of them are guys (and I'm the only one in AB, so it's fully male-dominated in that one  ;))

 

I'll probably continue programming into college, but I don't know if I even want a career in it yet.

I'm 14  and male and have been coding since I was about 10 or 11 using Actionscript in Macromedia (now Adobe of course) Flash. When I was 11 I went to an "Adult Ed" course (normally you'd have to be 16 to get in... managed to get in though through my dad who was helping with the venue and was friends with the tutor). Done coding in Actionscript, C, C++, Javascript, HTML (I still suck at it, could never be bothered to learn it :P) and PHP. The only languages that I've actually achieved stuff with though are PHP and Actionscipt (although I've forgotten most of the Actionscript I once knew, no need for it now). I would love to learn more PHP and C++ (and German and Cantonese... :P). Um... that's about it for now I think...

18, female, college student in Florida, majoring in Computer Science. Yep, rare. =p I started learning HTML when I was 13, and started programming when I was 15. I know how to program in C, Java, PHP, Flash/Actionscript and know a bit about Javascript, C++, Ruby, VB and ASP.

A lot of people don't expect me to be interested in computers or programming, but my dad's a programmer and my mom's Asian, so I got the best of both. =p
