A lot of people are fairly familiar with stackoverflow, so it's no revelation that it's one of the best places to get help with any type of coding from PHP, to JavaScript, to C++, etc. More often than not, you can easily find a post that has already asked and answered your question that's causing you problems with whatever you're working on, but in the event that you can't, it's fairly simple to sign up and create your own post and ask for help. The community there is fairly friendly and willing to help, but it's mostly understood that you have some idea of what you're talking about. It isn't necessarily a place for asking, "Where do I begin? I don't know what I'm doing!". It's more of a place for specific, detailed questions to address a unique problem and it will provide, usually, simple answers to solve the problem.
I second this recommendation. The people at stackoverflow know what they're doing and can be extremely helpful when you're completely stuck and have a looming deadline.
