I've been trying to learn some php to put some interactivity into webpages and stuff. Mostly i'm just bored. I read this tutorial over at webmonkey http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/01/48/index2a.html?tw=programming
but all that really taught me was the basic syntax using variables and combining it with forms. I still can't do anything with it. I tried reading the php manual but to me it seemed very complex, and more for reference no learning it. I've looked around here, but all of your articles seem to be very specific.
Now I know I must have missed something so where is all the stuff I'm looking for at?
Right now I want to be able to make a form that asks a bunch of questions and takes all the answers and outputs it to a txt or html file, so that I can take a survay and just read that page to see what everyone else said. I also want to make a little test that has 512 yes no questions...can someone tell me the functions I need to look up to do this stuff?
