I would suggest picking up ImpactJS, since this sounds more like a traditional animated game than a PBBG, so that basically puts PHP out of the running. Halls also has a tutorial series in the YouTube Tutorials section that relates to learning ImpactJS to create the game client and Node.js to create the server. Plus, Halls has released HallsNode, which is his basic framework to get a networked game setup quickly with Node.js!
