Ah!  Well in that case, please allow me to suggest *not* CakePHP.  For the
moment.  Do something well-structured and bite-sized like the php course on
http://www.codecademy.com/ -- It's free.  Then do it once more (because
repetition aids learning -- corny but true).  *then* go shopping for
cakePHP tutorials.  Learn a little PHP first (and maybe do the javascript
course too!).  You'll be glad you did!
