Hi Paul, I'm not a developer at all.... just a hack that spends lots of time in front my machine.... Learning Zope hasnt been easy considering the documentation isnt very good. But using the yahoo site for searching the archives is quite fruitfull..... Though Im not nearly up to speed on it, I can say that I can build an entire site on zope and have done... using my bare essentials of 'try it, break it, try it again'. Cant say if PHP is easier or not.... you just gotta have the gusto and jump in. Paul Zwarts Paul Newman wrote:

How hard is it for non-programmers to learn Zope? Would PHP be easier? How many of you guys graduated from Python to Zope? If I only know HTML can I realistically learn anything beyond the very basics of Zope or am I looking at learning Pyhton in parallel?
Should I start with the Zope Book? Should I start learning python at the same time? If Learning Python was hard, which book do you recommend?
