@Wooble: I expect that you are right. But still, it would be a better place to ask this question. – dnagirl Feb 11 '11 at 16:00

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

If you have learnt HTML and CSS then you have two main routes open to you from there, the natural split in web development between front-end and back-end. For example, if you like design then I'd suggest javascript and a graphic package like Photoshop (or whatever). The backend would be to look at a language like Ruby/Python/Perl/PHP/C#, and SQL for databases.

You'll need to know a little bit of everything in the end, so have a go with everything just so you're aware of it all, and then you can end up where you're most comfortable (and forge helpful working relationships with those who like bits you dont :)

PHP or Javascript (or both) could be a good direction to go next, either will provide a lot of powerful options for your web projects. www.w3schools.com has a lot of info/reference for either...

PHP: www.php.net

Javascript: good place to find tons of info on Javascript is here https://developer.mozilla.org/en/javascript
