Have you seen these?
http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/tocs_m..._rail_maps.htm

They cover all of the UK and not just England.

I was looking at London more because they had quite a few jobs listed for PHP developers.

How would I stay there for a few months or even weeks though? I don't have a lot of funds I can pull from, and any I pull from on a visit would give me less to work with if I decide to stay there. It costs $800 USD for a round trip plane ticket, plus I am guessing it would be around $200 to stay there every day. It would be a really expensive trip.

Thanks for the link of the rails, those look pretty good.

Look at the terms of the visa.

It may allow you to work temporarily while on the short-stay.

But how would I get any temporary work? Is there any place that would hire someone if they were only staying for about two weeks?

[EXreaction]

What I could use is someone who lives in the UK, has an extra room, and wouldn't mind putting up with me for a few days (maybe a week at the most), oh, and wouldn't charge me much to borrow a room.

Let me get this straight you wanna go there to work two weeks as a PHP developer and come back?

[EXreaction]

No, I want to move there permanently, and get a job as a PHP developer.

If I would go on a trip there for 2 weeks it would cost a lot of money is all I was saying, and that even if I legally could work there temporarily while I was visiting I don't think anyone would hire someone like that.

Do you know anyone in your preferred area (London(?))?

Do you know if you can work legally in that 2 week period?

[EXreaction]

No, I don't know anyone in the UK at all (other than the few who have said they do in this thread).

I don't know if I could work during that time either legally.

I'm sure you can find out on the Brithish Embassy's website.
Do so.
