Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

I usually plod through the documentation at Zend.

I like learning from A List Apart, but for basic PHP (about which I know nothing, yet) would this be useful? [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is that the same as the documentation at php.net?

Thanks, Deena--I'll pass that link on.

Zend is the company that controls php.

Cool. I've already pointed him to the php.net documentation, which is the same, and now the tutorials at Zend from Deena.

I wish I could remember what I used.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I wish I could remember what I used.

You learned your php on the street.

I started with the online doc and a couple of O'Reillys, one on web database stuff, since that's what I was poking at.

The bullshit consensus title for the next thread was "Buffistechnology 3: Press some buttons, see what happens", but it got buried in the pseudocide kerfuffle.

After overcoming a couple of minor problems, I got sound working for Windows programs under Ubuntu. There's something kinda fun about playing a bit of a Windows game without the Windows part.
