Hady-poo:
If you want, get in contact with me, I've a light bit of experience with php and persistent databases (MySQL).
If you can explain to me what your current site does I can figure out which parts of it I know how to emulate and which I can go about learning.
No, I'm not a code-in-my-sleep PHP mastah, but some willingness and knowledge are better than nothing, perhaps? I'm just operating on the assumption you'd like some help.
