Hello!, .. will try to keep this short!
I've been a long time lurker but minimal poster. I made it a new years
resolution to finally take on PHP jobs and now have my first one (with a
completion date in a couple weeks!).
I've been scripting in another language for many years and do know a
thing or two.. but anticipate bothering the list a few times in the near
future... hope that is fine with you all.
I'm just about through Larry Ullman's "PHP" third edition that I started
a couple days ago. Good book to start with I think, even for folks who
have some kind of head start in Web Programming. I'm able to skim over
a lot of it.
I don't know how you all remain sane in dealing with quotes workarounds
in echo/print statements, having to open/close PHP parsing using <?php
?> all the time, and having to deal with array's for just about
everything... but I'm sure I'll get used to it and it will become second
nature at some point. ;-)
..Just turned 40 and had to finally change my monitor settings from 1920
X 1200 to 1344 X 840, which was like breathing fresh air after being in
a coal mine for 8 hours... I should have done that 5 years ago
I think.
Cheers, to a new year, and new tricks for old dogs! ;-),
Donovan
