cyberspace look this website:
http://www.tizag.com/It has PHP and MySQL tutorials, very short explanations and all very understable.
I copied it to abiword, printed and after it I learned a lot of MySQL and PHP.
You also have another useful tutorials.
I didn't have any idea of PHP before and now I can hack many things.
As advice I recommend you start changing things in XOOPS or any other php code just NOW. Don't read too much, just learn by experience and seeing what changes do, or run small pieces of code. That is the best way to learn any programming.
So long,
