Here's my 2p worth.

MySQL the free database server software with a PHP interface is an alternative to Microshaft SQL Server and ASP.

EasyPHP lets you install a webserver on your Windows PC. The download includes Apache as the web server, a PHP interpreter and MySQL database with PHPMyAdmin to manage the databases. It's a great way of learning PHP and MySQL without needing any web space. I have a copy on my PC to test out all of RCT2.com before I 'promote' anything to the site.

Zend where you can download a free PHP editor/debugger

WebMonkey Developers Resource full of great tutorials about all sorts of web subjects.

Mmm, we need some HTML tutorial and HTML editor links.

Thank you
