Very helpful tutorial. The best piece of information was the idea of working from the small size up, I really liked it.

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.

"My PHP skills are not too sharp, but I am learning quickly thanks to yours and other tutorials on
the Internet. I particularly enjoyed your OOP PHP tutorials and you really helped me get a better grasp of OOP principals
and how to use them when creating projects for clients. Yours is the first video tutorials I have seen on the subject."
