I wish at uni they had decided to teach us in php first...
We had to start with Java, and although the language has its merits,
it really just slows down the learning process to one giant javac
blur...
The advantage of PHP is that it is easy to learn, and useful, more
useful than you can imagine...
I build websites in php all day long...
Cheers
Paul
PHP is not generally applicable outside the domain of web pages
though, so it wouldn't be used in a general programming course (Now I
think of it, I would never have been taught it when I started because
there wasn't a World-wide web, nor a PHP :)
But yes, it is very useful!
Have fun,
Shay
