texte = Hi Terry, you also have to factor in the database part. WebDNA makes persistence easy. Switching to PHP will mean you'll also have to figure out how you store and retrieve your data - likely using MySQL. I think if you don't have any SQL experience, the database layer may take you more time to figure out than PHP, especially if you have to constantly modify your schema. -----Original Message----- From: WebDNA Talk [mailto:WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com] On Behalf Of Terry Wilson Sent: Wednesday, January 10, 2007 4:50 AM To: WebDNA Talk Subject: learning PHP I've made the commitment to myself to learn PHP, starting with the course at Lynda.com. But as I am scrambling to meet some deadlines right now, I haven't started the PHP course yet. So I'm wondering what is a reasonable expectation, timewise, for getting up to speed in PHP? I'm a good learner and proficient in WebDNA, HTML and CSS but only a practical familiarity with Javascript. I do have a few sites that need revamping which I could use as projects, but in addition I have a few people interested in new sites. I would love to make these new sites in PHP if possible.
