well, "here" as in my actual location, which is sitting in front of my slightly yellowish monitor on a beach chair because my computer chair broke.

i do php development for work and i can tell you that you'll need to be more specific as to what you want to do. are you asking to do a content management system? there's a program called mambo which is already made for you but it has standardized templates and options. go check google for it.
if you want to make something more complicated, or has different options from the ones mambo gives you, then you'll have to learn html, css, javascript, php, mysql - REALLY well. you have to understand cross-browser support, sessions, layout structure, user management, and processing optimization (among other things). you don't want to end up creating a non-object-oriented system which slows everything down and makes pure spaghetti code.
just my two cents.

The idea is to create a system of personal webpages for academics, so the academics can just fill some forms and the thing would generate the webpage, with options to upload courses and general info.
i'll search for mambo and see if it fits.

You should easily have it done by November, even if you have to start from scratch. The easiest way to approach it would be to decide exactly what it is you need to acheive. Do a formal requirements and specification document, break the problem down as far as possible and write down logically how you would solve each of the problems in English. Then learn only the code you need to for solving each problem. Even if you have no programming experience, with a couple of hours a week you should have it done by the beginning of August.

Also don't go looking for open source solutions to base your code on, you will only end up with a sub standard, poorly coded, result and little more understanding than when you began.
