I refer to the PHP and MySQL websites for everything -- they both have excellent documentation. Read the docs there, and code as much PHP as you can.
I, personally, would say a PHP cert is worth little, as anyone who really knows PHP will have some sort of resume or portfolio of PHP based sites that they have created or worked on. That portfolio is the most important thing, I believe, and if you don't have that, even with a PHP cert, it's going to be a tough road. And, I'd say, you must know HTML and CSS by heart. If you really want to understand PHP beyond just coding websites, learn Perl or C++ as those languages are similar. Knowing Perl or C++ will take some time indeed, since they are each very powerful languages, but if you have no programming experience beyond PHP, more robust languages will stretch you, and teach you a lot in the process. I'll be the first to admit, many will disagree with me here, saying this advice is overkill, but if you really want to learn.... I'm just telling you what really helped me.
