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!
