Here are just a few beginner links. And no don't give up. Personally I would buy a good book on php but hey I just find that I learn better from a book. I'm completly self taught as far as web programming goes. Just don't get too frustrated and and have fun. And after you start having fun remember it is good for you to stop to eat and sleep.
