NYCPHP Meetup

[jahmon :-)]

My suggestion is as follows:
1) www.php.net -- probably your best source of documentation
	a)you can find stuff easy if you kinda know what you're looking for 
	e.g. (www.php.net/mysql)
2) www.mysql.com -- same as 1...for mysql
3) get a book (I can't advise you on which one. I've read a few...none
	really stand out. I'm sure someone else can assist you w/ that)
4) play around w/ ideas...try new things....it will speed up the process.
5) if you can...look at other people's code. down load some open source
	stuff from freshmeat.net just to look at it...it will show you how to write
	better code (hopefully -- there is a lot of bad code out there -- [but
	you'll notice it when you see it])
hope that helps.
good luck...and welcome.
