I am Java Developer. But, I am required to develop & submit a sample project of PHP (Online Shopping Management). This is just for learning basic programming in PHP.
I have been using w3schools as well.
Please kindly suggest a very easy & fast way to get confidence over the language for this development.
EDIT : Basically, I need to know the way how do I shift to PHP development from Java ?
as you are already a developer grab a framework (zend, symfony etc), go through basic tutorials on frameworks manuals and start shooting the code.
to get the good reference on e-commerce based on top of zend you might wan’t to explore the guts of Magento that’s available from http://www.magentocommerce.com
