I am 47 and I only know some html. Planning to change career and learning PHP/MySQL for about 6 months. What are my chance to get a job after that? Is PHP/MySQL the right technology? I was trying to do some ASP.NET but I was told it will take me much longer than 6 months.

TheAnswerMan asked:


I’ve made multiple attempts at learning PHP but get frustrated when I reach a problem with a script I’m working on that I can’t seem to overcome. I’m looking primarily for heavy community-based sites where I can ask questions (forums, chats?), but appreciate any good websites you can refer me to!

Roland asked:


I know only some html. I am 46 would like to change career. I am thinking learning PHP and possibly LAMP to get a job as entry level. How long do you guys think it will take me to learn the material. I was thinking developing under linux but I know nothing about linux. Will it be more beneficial to learn under windows? If I study about 3 H per day , how long will it take me to get there. Thanks.
