My expertise is in SEO and know HTML & CSS (maybe some Javascript). I was thinking about pushing it a little further and doing some PHP. How do I get started and what do I need?

Read some tutorials, if you have a HTML & CSS editor, It will work for PHP too. (An example: Dreamweaver)

Good luck!

Start at w3schools, then buy a book if you are really dedicated. There are a ton of good PHP beginner's books out there. Once you've mastered the basics of PHP and MySQL, buy "PHP in Action: Objects, Design, Agility" and read it from cover to cover. It's not necessarily the best intermediate book but it is a good over view of a lot of different aspects of writing good PHP. Once you've done this, download some open source libraries and study those. Then download an entire program, maybe Drupal, and see how it works. Write some plugins for it. Then you will be ready to code just about anything (as long as you understand the problem domain).

Start with a good editor something like dreamweaver. And honestly php is so easy to learn. Google how to add to include a header and footer.php file in one page. That will give you a basic understanding of php. Than from there. Just google anything you wanna do with php and it will all catch on. Hope this helps

Quick Question. How do you go about taking a down-loadable file like Autodesk's Viewer, or Adobe Reader and entering it into a Wordpress Page? Are there any legal issues with this either. Thanks guys

In order to become a PHP programmer, you should have excellent problem-solving and technical thinking skills and be able to troubleshoot using the latest technology.

and don't worry about the syntax ; you can learn it via tutorials,and books etc...
