    I guess web design is more of an art than practicable skill.

    But practice take one to certain extend. so practice practice practice..

    I am a software engineer cum web designer, I learned by reading and practice. But I were a s/w for years before i touched web design, I touched because I needed some CSS skills for my programming work.

    The "PHP Bible" is a good book to start on programming.

    I read a couple of books... 1 about html/css, one about php and mySQL and one about javascript, learned the rest using common sense and online tutorials.

    First you learn some basic about html. and slicing would be difficult for new commers.you just put some simple img on dreamweaver for your practice then you gain some knowlege about html.

    I second w3c schools!

    Learnt html/css myself from that and other online resources.

    I learnt HTML then CSS then JS, in that order. Mastering HTML was key to a good foundation to learn css and js off.

    Its a life long work in progress. Lots of failures and trials. My coding still leaves a lot to be desired. That can be seen quickly with firebug. lol

    Web design is a extremely complex thing . Learning how to code a simple site takes minutes if you're a quick learner but it's process that never stops . Creativity and ingenuity are limitless and since we're at the cutting edge of one of the most volatile domains we can never stop improving ourselves .

    Hi,
    Website design is a very important aspect of setting up and managing a website, especially if you want to attract visitors to your website.

    I learned it from basically looking at a lot of source codes on websites. Don't try to decipher complex sites, just simple ones. Learn how placement is done, style sheets are done. Some people still use tables but most are going to css (div world). I suggest you learn css mock up.

    oh yeh that thing called google! :)
