I am currently trying to learn PHP and would like some help on the topic please.

the best place is codewalkers.com

The first thing i learned in PHP was identifying the IP of the person

(tried to enter code, then in (code) and (/code) and then in (quote) and (/quote) but it wouldnt show it...and even without the square brackets, it still wouldnt show it...)

And then the MAIL feature... forgot the code for that one, but was interesting to use it in forms, as well as letting me know what IP of the PC was who was visiting certain pages...

Then another was fwrite or fread for file writing/reading...

Good luck, the above websites are good sources

I think everyone has all the good sites covered. One other thing that you might want to have under your belt is a good turorial book. Something like a SAM's Teach Yourself PHP book. Those have really nice tutorials that can help walk you throught some of the sticking points you might have.
