It seems like most people who learn php already have a programming background. I speak (x)html and css but no programming. Is php the best thing to start with or would you recommend learning something else first?

I found it really difficult to grasp the basic concepts, loops and arrays for example. I've got the hang of those now, in theory at least. I have yet to use php with other files or databases, but I am comfortable handling form data eg. a contact form.

I found mysql really difficult to understand and I am a lot more comfortable with sqlite. Would you suggest I move on to mysql or stick with sqlite?
