The only use for PHP in this scenario would be the retrieving and storing of events in the database. The actual graphical representation is not done in PHP (although it can build the days in the calendar itself). You should learn HTML and CSS, and to improve the interface you might need to do some JavaScript including jQuery and AJAX.

Basically this comes more to graphical design than server-side programming. The things you need to know for the PHP side are communicating with a database (mysql_query, mysql_fetch_array), loops and the date() function.

Do you have any experience in PHP?
