You're right, OP does seem to always skip the official PHP docs and starts building right away...

So yeah, I guess it makes sense to use a framework when you're just starting out learning PHP and the website needs more than just the basic SQL stuff.
Or perhaps even buying a fully working script and just modify it a bit to your own needs. That's what I often did when I barely knew the basics. Learned a lot that way (with trial and error... lots of error).
