Youre welcome
A good place to start is
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/programming/php/index.html" target="_blank">http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/programming/php/index.html</a>

particularly
<a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/01/48/index2a.html?tw=programming" target="_blank">http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/01/48/index2a.html?tw=programming</a>
which will give you a good start and has some basic form stuff that will be
useful<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
