When you reply, tell us a little about what you're doing in PHP so others know what you're up to.
Building websites and administration systems (registration for events, scoring programmes and small accounting) for sports clubs, and administration systems to manage my servers.
I have been working with PHP for 10 years now.

Most of my current work in PHP is built around modding PHP and manipulating EVE Online's API at present, but I'm well-versed in a number of PHP's extensions and tend to like doing a broad spectrum of different types of programming jobs. I like seeing how far I can push it.
Been working with the development/programming aspect of computers for 11 years, but I've only been working on PHP for about 10 months. I had prior programming experience, though, so that helped me pick it up quick, since the logic is almost identical in a lot of cases.

been doing php for about a year just learning at the moment by making my own game, my improvement could be seen in the vareity and power of my code across several pages (until i updated them all)
i like learning new stuff which makes php easier and im starting to learn c/c++
I'm a novice at PHP but steadily learning, mostly deal with everyday simple dynamic web pages, latest endeavor is a full work order ticket database for the company i work for. I'm a IT tech so its a help-desk web page that is MySQL based. Available on the web ( as a PHP site ) and currently developing a desktop application using VB.NET to interact with the database as well. Started coding by taking over for a member of a CSS team i played on who was building our team web page who got busy at school. Got thrown in the mix and been doing it ever since. I like ghqwerty love learning new things and making my little brain think as hard as possible. Hope to be able to contribute more to this site as i know it has helped me in the past in my Google searches and being one of the most common hits from there
since i love to code, and going to do it anyway. so i got a job doing it. ATM building a tool box app to hold all the other tools i wrote for my boss over last 5 years. is fun, working my brain.
i like to learn, and help others to learn, so here i am...
Been the creative lead and senior developer at my company for a looong time now and enjoy *almost* every day of it!
PHP +/ MySQL is used in every web based application we build, so it has been a huge part of my life over the past six / seven years. I live just outside Belfast so it's hard getting to the big conferences, but you'll see me at any of the Dublin / Derry shows
(Just like to say I 'disappeared' from DIC for several months there whilst I moved house and got a few personal projects finsihed up, but I'm back baby! Woooo!)
I am currently employed writing PHP (amongst other things). Part of my job at the moment is to write and maintain web interfaces for a supermarket chain. Been here about 6 months, been writing PHP for years before that though
I've been working with PHP on and off for the last 5 years, mainly to add language selectors to html sites and for basic CMSs. I don't think of myself as particularly competent though, I just hack things together!
Been doing PHP for two years. Have a project going on for a little more than a year, morkalork.com, where I spend my time writing articles about what I learn. Also have a closed forum for my class that has totally spun out of control
Feel more secure in PHP than C# (which seems to be the language I will work with). Heh...
I used to code PHP. Currently im learning ASPX and C# though so PHP has been on the back burner. Only thing im currently using PHP in is my personal website redesign and wordpress blog creation.
I work in the web development field. I started getting involved with PHP when I ran a pretty big gaming community hosted on a VBulletin forum to start being able to develop some unique things to my site to make it different.
I've only been working with PHP for a couple months now but I'm enjoying getting involved in helping others as the most I ever learned at one time was when someone handed me a script that was completely broken and destroyed and I fixed it to functioning.
It seems the mistakes are really what you learn the most from.
Though I have no design skills, I've wrote a handful of projects in PHP, including my latest Twitter Bot. I enjoy working w/ mysql, PayPal API/IPN, & email form validations.
A lot of my PHP goes into modifying an open source shopping cart to meet the needs of our clients. I also handle dynamic pages and of course contact forms for our simpler websites. I have done some custom database work using MySQL. I had one project that used a Perl script that I had to heavily customize. I had never used Perl before, but I hacked my way through it. I am currently writing a resource scheduler as a personal learning project. It will use MySQL to store the data. I have a very unattractive, neglected website linked in my signature.
I love doing what people say can't be done. (Usually involves embedding some script into a website.) Sometimes my code is kind of ugly, but I "get-R-dun".
I have done some amazingly complex cURL scraping full of string-replacements to make one site show up inside another. (Our customer purchased a hosted version of an application from another vendor, and we needed more control) I was even able to send multiple file uploads through cURL from my client's site to the target site. That was pretty cool! I eventually added some caching to reduce the load between our server and theirs.
I have one website ready to release where I set up an authorize.net api. I have run it in test mode and everything went well. I look forward to my customer getting off their tush and giving me the details to see if it works in live mode.

I have been programming in PHP for around 8 months and learned in leaps and bounds. I started firstly by reading tutorials on the net, with great success.
So I then decided to create me own Free Browser-Based, Text RPG. I have been creating it for around 4 months in my spare time. During the process of creating the RPG I have learned MySQL and JavaScript to aid me.
With the inclusion of the other 2 languages aswell as PHP, I have learned alot in a short amount of time.
So I have, well I would say that I have very good knowledge of PHP, MySQL and JavaScript to an extent.
