Try the WebMonkey and the DevShed ones, I think...  Or just try the first
three pages of each tutorial you can find, and follow all the way through
the first one that makes sense to you.

To a large extent, it depends on what you want to *DO* with PHP.

MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, MS-SQL, or all of the above?
Do you need GD?
How about high-precision mathematics with BC_MATH?
Super-fast but low-featured "database" action?  LDAP is your buddy.
Need to retrieve Email and News in a web page?  Find a PHP/IMAP HowTo.

There can't be an ultimate PHP tutorial from start to finish because, like,
unless you actually need LDAP or YP or HyperWave or any of the other rather
esoteric extensions there's not much point in forcing them into a tutorial.

You'd be looking at an encyclopedia before you were done with every
extension.  Hell, by the time somebody wrote the damn thing, somebody else
will have come up with another extension.
