    If you’re just starting out php is no good to you. You can’t use it if you don’t know html and css (at least html, but you should html and css together) so don’t worry about it.

    Focus just on html and css, and later you can decide between learning javascript of php depending on whether you’d rather be a front end or back end developer.

    It depends on what type of web developer you want to be.

    If you want to be a front-end web developer, you need to master HTML and CSS first. Then you can move on to some jQuery and even some PHP.

    Do not try to skip ahead until you truly understand HTML and CSS.

    1. The first steps I would say is; getting a decent editor with code highlightning, I use Panic Inc.’s Coda editor in OS X, and after that you have to figure out what kind of language you would like to work with. PHP & MySQL is the most common to start out with, but before you start on that you should have a basic understanding of HTML & CSS.

    2. I would recommend you to start with HTML, CSS then slowly over to Javascript – and after that to PHP & MySQL. :)

    3. Your first website should contain HTML & CSS and could be as simple as; your personal page or your online storage place for code snippets or something like that. Learn the very basics before you start with web development. I do not recommend y ou to skip class on this one if you really want to learn this.

    4. I’m not a web developer, I’m a web designer. It started out as a hobby, and ended up as my main profession – and it took me many years to get here!
