Howdy Strangers

Sorry to barge in like this but I'd really appreciate any pointers for a
seasoned veteran of programming (including C, Java, ASP, JSP, Perl, shell,
VB, HTML, XSL) who has never touched PHP before.

I've rather rashly agreed to doing some enhancements on a PHP Web app and,
timescales being what they are, I don't have enough time for "learn PHP in
21 days" or suchlike

Any links to your favourite resource sites or tutorials greatfully
appreciated.

Many thanks in advance

Andy

In my opinion, if you've done all those things you could probably skip the
tutorials/articles and go to the phpbuilder snippet library

http://www.phpbuilder.com/snippet/

It's organized by category. Download a bunch of code that seems relevant to
your project, read it, then tear it all apart and whatnot until it does what
you want.
