I learned PHP in a week, but that's because I went out and bought a book where I could sit down and whatnot and I also had knowledge of other actual languages.
I think you can probably learn it in a month, but it all depends on how much you push yourself.
If anything, get the basics of it down and stuff of both of them and say that you have a bit of experience. You might also want to ask them which one you'd be using more.
Another question for you, what style do you learn, like learning why stuff works, or learn by seeing it work and stuff?
If you can understand stuff from seeing it work, then I'd suggest "PHP Fast & Easy Web Developement." It will throw you right into making stuff, but beware, it won't really tell you why or how stuff works. It also doesn't really get into some of the good and heavy stuff.
Anyway, I'm going to stop my ramble now...
