I read my emails this morning and saw this comment had been posted. Maybe it was just the slightly worse for wear state I was in after getting in at 1:30am, but I felt I had to respond to it. Anyway, here goes.
Wow! That is quite a lot you are asking!
Lets start off with how to learn PHP. I got into it by following a tutorial in a magazine from my local newsagent. You could try this, but I expect there are much better tutorials online. Here are a couple of links:

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/PHP
http://www.php.net/manual/en/
PHP probably isn’t the best language to start off with if you have not done any programming before, you might want to look into Ruby On Rails which is really simple.
As for how to start on a project such as this I suggest you read Getting Real. It outlines some great ideas that are well suited (and proven to be sucessful) for working on a web application.
One thing though, don’t expect to be rich in six months time. Learning anything in as much detail as you need will take many years of hard work. I started learning PHP when I was 13 or 14 and I still don’t consider myself an expert.
If you have a good idea and want to make a move on it now you might want to look into hiring freelances or teaming up with somebody else. If you want a freelancer there are various sites such as GetAFreelancer. If you want to team up head over to BuildV1 where I am sure you can find somebody to help you.
Anyway, that should be enough to get you on the right tracks, the rest is up to you! Let us know how it goes!
