Just a note on learning HTML and javascript Firefox has some brilliant developer tools/extensions: Tidy will check your html for you and suggest improvements. The Css editor will allow you to change your css on the fly and see what the effect is - it wont save it for you but you can cut and paste from the window. The javascript console is a really usefull for spotting 'glaring' javascript errors. The venkman debugger is a godsend. The dominspector is brilliant - especially if your dynamically modifying your page with javascript and wondering whats happening.
