I recommand you to start with little pseudocode and after that try php because is very easy ... after that you learn something else

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

#include <iostream.h>

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

While PHP is actually just

<?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
