I guess you’re right.

It’s not about being right but rather my opinion.

And it’s probably better to gain a really solid foundation (by that I mean a thorough understanding) before you move on.

Sure, if you’re going to be applying for employment in this area for a career. In my case, I was learning by doing basic things and then progressively as I understood what I was doing, moved on to other areas. But that does not mean I didn’t have to come back to learn more about HTML or CSS because I certainly did. You learn by experimenting.

So… make it a week or two :)

Ahaha. Simply put, I wouldn’t place a time on how long it takes to teach yourself. Everyone learns at their own pace.
