    HTML and CSS is really the basics if you want to get into web design. Check out W3Schools or Tizag.com and see how to do basic HTML and CSS.
    You can also look around at other peoples' work to see how they've done their coding.

    Once you've got HTML down you can get into PHP/mySQL and other languages to start doing more dynamic stuff.

    Good luck getting started!

    I think, starting with HTML and CSS simultaneously is a good idea. After that I would consider learning jQuery, to make your design look more professional. After you have a pretty good understanding of design, it's a good idea to learn a scripting language like JavaScript, or a server-side language like PHP, or Ruby.

    Yup, start with HTML and CSS before going into the advanced stuff.

    best thing is to use notepad to try out the basic html tags, then step onto css, a google search about "basic html programming" will give you great sites to start with.

    I use a site called jsFiddle, which compiles your code within the web browser, rather than going between two programs.

    Learn HTML and CSS first, then go learn javascript. Once you get comfortable, then go for php. Good Luck.

    You CANNOT design web pages without HTML. You CAN design web pages without PHP.

    If you are smart, you should be able to figure out which one to learn first.

    If you can't figure it out, you should find a different field of endeavor where you don't need logical thought.

    You could learn them at the same time? Why not do a small project or something?

    Dont try everything at once, just go for basic first, HTML.
    Finished the 75% of topics, dont go deep, then code something using that knowledge, then you can go ahead for something else. PHP maybe...

    As others have previously stated, w3schools is THE site to be on. Also, sitepoint.com has some fantastic tutorials for the more advanced stuff like javascript/php.

    When I started web design, I copied the source code of my favorite sites and tried to figure out what each part of the code did. Also, having a wysiwyg editor (dreamweaver etc.) is extremely helpful. DW helped me so much when I started.
