HTML & CSS Coding

Learning HTML and CSS is it enough coding to start a small web design business if i only design regular website without any script like members registering, logins, etc...?

 

Also learn a bit of JQuery,,, i will help you design beautiful user interfaces..

 

I agree with techcruser, you should learn Java Script and JQuery both... and if you are planning to do some handon with open platform tools/script then you must be aware about PHP and MySQL.

 

webDesign means HTML/XHTML & CSS so, that is all you actually need to know to design ANY TYPE of websites. Of course, once you will be able to design websites you should learn JavaScript/JQuery to add some nice features to the sites but that is the second step a webDesigner should take.

 

If you want to start a web design business, then you should know about the dynamic language tools like JQuery, Java Script etc. to give a better user interface to the user. Because, nowadays nobody prefers a static website only, everyone wants to have dynamic one with an easy to use user interface.

 

Sorry guys I disagree.  A good solid knowledge of HTML/XHTML & CSS is a good enough starting place to build brochure sites for small businesses.  Offering something like a 6 page brochure site for $99 can get you started.  For more advanced stuff why not outsource it??  Good luck.

 

Sorry forgot to say you could also learn how to build websites with Wordpress to give you some more flexibility.

 

If you learn HTML and CSS, you can comfortably make websites. and try wordpress as the next step. JQuery and Javascript will power you to some stunning results.

 

For HTML you should be able to read rest use dreamviewer.After that learn css through w3school tutorials, after then a long practice thats all for now.

 

You can learn Ajax too.. that will help you sometimes!

 

Nice Discussion..

 

Agreed haha. Moral of the story is that everyone likes to see cool javascript effects. And if you want to learn, ignore jquery at first. It is a library for javascript, not a second language, and will only make sense if you know what you're looking at.

Theme building for scripts like wordpress is a good next step as suggested too. That will be a key selling point for someone who can't make custom php scripts.

 

for web design javascript is must for validation

 

Sorry forgot to say you could also learn how to build websites with Wordpress to give you some more flexibility.

 

w3schools is a great place to learn tutorials.

 

And a web designer course should prove icing on the cake.

 

at least you should learn ASP.NET
