I learned PHP mostly from vBulletin, and the same goes with MySQL. I still need to sharpen my skills with PHP/MySQL queries, as well learning the more useful functions of PHP, or creating my own.

I wouldn't have learned PHP so quickly though if it wasn't for my AP Computer Science class, which I learned C++ through. C++ has so many common similarities to PHP, that when I got into PHP it flowed very nicely as the syntax was almost identical. I enjoy PHP way more than C++ though, as the need for compilers bores me. I am still interested in learning more from that language though. The main thing I dislike of C++ was instantiating variables, where you have to define them as int, char, bool, and to follow those properties through coding. While in PHP you just slap on a "$" to make it a variable, and it isn't specific to characters or numbers, etc. And overall PHP is just more hands on, as it's on the web.
