PHP is extremely easy when compared to JavaScript and others. JavaScript is indeed client-side. PHP is made easier if you know C or C++. C is more like PHP than C++. But both help.

Thanks for reminding me. I am awear it is client side but the way he stated it I gathered it meant "server scripting" as in web page scripting.But I could be wrong.

It all depends on your personality. Some people can learn PHP without any previous knowleadge of programming. <-- Myself..

Some people can learn any language of programming without any experience of programming. Though the basic understanding of the knowleadge and what the words mean really helps.

C++ and PHP are really two different languages.
For example C++ to say Hello World would be something like

Code:

#include <iostream.h>

main()
{
    cout << "Hello World!";
    return 0;
}

While PHP is actually just

PHP Code:

  <?php

print "Hello World!";

?>

Both of similair properties and differences.. The biggest is the complition process of C++ and the background program for PHP. Pretty much PHP get translated into something of use to the server by the PHP Application. While C++ you complie it and it is pretty much ready for distribute.

The basic knowleadge is good to know and will help you. So personally.. I would say.. Pick up a VB book and start from there.. I think VB is the starting point to every programming language.

PHP and some notion of SQL is a good point of start
