Hi everyone,

I realized that there's so much to learn about, and my pool of knowledge, compared to most of you guys here i guess, is kinda shallow..

Would you recommend any courses I should take?

I know HTML, Dreamweaver, a little bit about graphics. What courses would benefit me, if I want to create simple, dynamic websites.

I just can't be paying someone else for every small thing I want to implement on my site Sad

Go to a local Barnes and Noble store and buy a "how to book". follow the steps and then play around for a bit. I learned that way!

Hi Jaison,

Thanks for the friendly advice. Here is my new goal:

1) To learn and apply CMS
2) To learn in depth about Search Engines.
3) Learn basic PHP scripting

Hopefully these 3 fields of knowledge will make good results for me Smile

Hello,

I am currently a web developer for a large retail company. What you want to learn can depend upon which platform you would like to host your site on. Linux (unix) is typically a cheaper option, and would involve CGI programming .. such as Perl, or the easier dynamic option PHP.

If you would like to run on a Windows platform, It would be ASP. I would follow the previous posts tip -- go to a book store and but a "dummies guide". I have learned many new programming languages in this manner.

Best of luck to you.
