Learning PHP/MySQL and FTP

As my website building knowledge is limited, i am teaching myself how to integrate MySQL

I am using these two tutorials
http://www.freewebmasterhelp.com/tutorials/php
http://www.freewebmasterhelp.com/tutorials/phpmysql

i am also going ahead in the databasing lecture tutorials on my university course to learn extra MySQL programming.

I have paid for and registered my own domain called dinnermate.net
Whilst it is getting set up, i'm using a free website called web.com to host it for free so i can get ahead and practise what i've learnt.

I realised that to work through the PHP tutorials, i had to learn FTP and downloaded Filezilla which is a FTP client

edit: 1am

Now understanding FTP, realised that my freehosting service doesnt support php so willhave to wait til tomorrow when my paid domain goes live.
