I am creating a site that will need php capabilities. As of the present I am a novice on php and have purchased books to learn it being I heard it is not that difficult to learn. My question is being a novice who is to say how long it will take me to learn php and get it to work for my site as for I don't want to wait months and months to launch the site. Should I use Joomla to create the site can Joomla make a php dynamic driven site without me having knowledge of php and is Joomla for beginners. or will it be best to have more patience and learn PHP myself.
