where is best place for me learn php apache and mysql

I prefer W3schools for learning PHP. Because they are web standard makers. They taught from begin level to up to some complex programming. I like tizag for improving my programming skills and Lyndia.com for learning design techniques.

Books from WROX publications are amongst the best for Apache, MySQL and PHP. As for .NET, you're probably referring to programming in C# or VB or J# to develop applications that target the .NET framework. While it would be a good idea to get a hold of programming in .NET languages, you're probably better off on the JAVA track if you're planning to remain in the same company as they're switching over to JDE.

Both .NET languages and JAVA are object oriented languages so it's a better idea to use C++ as the base(Instead of C). Once you've got a hold of concepts like data abstraction, inheritance, ploymorphism etc, and a touch of different types of functions and function calls and their usage, you can move onto Java(In your case, J2EE) or any of the .NET languages.

I always use http://www.w3schools.com
