i would like to learn php and do some scripting in it. where is a good place to start? any good online tutorials? good books? which editors are good and cheap(free)?

thanks in advance
 
The PHP online manual is good. Many programmers post code and info there that is very helpful.

ALso be sure to download the manual in pdf format, since it's good to have on hand if you internet connection is down for any reason.

PHPBuilder is a decent site for code.

I do all my PHP coding in Notepad, or VI when I ssh to my linux server. Dreamweaver is supposed to be able to do PHP code, but it may not come out in the style you prefer to code in. There are some other dev apps, but I can't remember the names right now.
