Mat,
The Dreamweaver help pages will lead you through the basics
of setting up
your PHP site in DreamWeaver, and get you started with simple
operations.
Once you've done that, take a look at:
Tutorials
http://www.w3schools.com/PHP/php_intro.asp
Reference
http://www.php.net/manual/en/index.php
Not to sound old-fashioned or anything, but you could go to a
local
bookstore ;-)
