One should know the basic concepts of HTML. You can find many e-books or forums that are very particular to web-designing.

hi everyone...im new in this web designing or creating own website...i already starting to try it in www.freewebs.com...i hope someone can guide me and teach me some techniques for me to learn this new things...thanks

My first try at a website was with FrontPage, the online tools weren't available. They seem ok, but all look pretty much alike. I wanted something a little different, so I had to learn more.

There are some great HTML tutorials online. Set up a directory and start building your own web page on your computer. Don't worry about servers and scripts until you can get a little multi-page site going

Hello,

Best way to learn web design the PROPER way:

Don't be tempted to use frontpage - it's POS. Use international W3C standards.

Well, good luck.
Mrk

I couldn't agree more. For one thing, you can tell at a glance that a site was made by FrontPage. And if you have viewed source for a site made be it or GoLive or the other WYSIWYG editors, you can see the mess they make.

Notepad is the way to go for a person who want's to say he knows HTML or CSS. It's not that hard if you learn from the start to close everything you open.

Yea, definately go the Notepad route (or MetaPad, UltraEdit, Notepad2, Notepad++....whatever you choose..lol) - much more satisfaction I took an XHTML course and it was soooo fun. Though I lack creativity, so I dont think webdesign is for me http://www.course.com/catalog/product.cfm?isbn=978-0-619-26747-6&CFID=5644435&CFTOKEN=50964949 is the book we used - I think...one of those "New Perspectives..." editions anyways heheh, good book though, taught pretty much straight to XHTML standards as far as I recall.

I'd like to give my opinion after trying to learn how to do a web page. I think it used to be very easy with FrontPage. But not only is it not a good program, it really no longer exists. It's outdated and things have changed since then. So really not an option. Learning HTML and CSS is a pretty long process, so take it calmly and go little by little. And non-professional people will probably never go much beyond basics. Since the beginning of web pages when it was ever so simple, things have really gotten complicated for the non-professionals. Understanding the different browser behaviors, for example. I use an editor called Aranae. I really like it. Better than note pad. More features. And there is a WYSIWYG editor called Kompozer which is pretty good, but most of all it has a forum with very kind and knowledgeable people who help each other out a lot without making you feel stupid. Some people find the open source CMS to be easy and useful, although I have never been able to. I also second the other advice given here.
