I'm a small businessman in a very big, competitive city. I have an idea for a web application that can really enhance my business if I can get it written (I have no programming experience at all). However, I find that the expense is too large for me to pay to have it written for me. So, I found an online tutorial for html and css. These two written tutorials got me started - I learned some tags, but not how to write a web page. I then bought a php/mySQL book for beginners. I worked through all 400+ pages and the accompanying CD. At the end of all this work I was intellectually excited to continue learning, but STILL could not do anything functional for my business.

Then I found killerphp.com.. I did their php and mySQL videos and WOW - I got real, usable information in a structured format that makes perfect sense. I just purchased the web design video from killersites.com and can't wait to get started. By the time I complete all the videos I will be able to write a web page and connect it to a mySQL database using PHP. The video instructor, Stefan, is a talented teacher. He has created a resource that is perfect for the beginner that wants, or needs, to get some real work done.

Anyway, thanks again. Your guide is the clearest I've found on the net so far.

So far videos being straight forward and very easy to understand. Each lesson has being broken down so I am able to pickup more. Haven't found any problems with it yet. Should really be a 5 star.
