[Rogue Znowman]

Hey.
There's another forum that I am involved with, which is based on one of my real life hobbies. We use the forum to organise games/meets, as well as buy/sell items, and of course for discussion.

The current forum is quite old, and is using a free, remotely hosted forum from Conforums ( http://www.conforums.com ), which completely lacks all features that may be useful. With my urging, we've decided to create a new version of the board, definitely php-based.

I've volunteered to take an admin's seat and set it up. Now, my only concern is that I have no php experience. What I'd like from you guys, is advice on which software to use, and any help on finding a good place to assist me in learning the language.

Software I'm considering:
- Invision http://www.invisionboard.com
- vBulletin http://www.vbulletin.com
- phpbb http://www.phpbb.com (free)

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Like DutchKid, I taught myself PHP. Best thing to do is download the manual from www.php.net, and search the site. There are a lot of handy code examples on that site.
