where did you learn html from?

I jusst read books I borrowed from the local library and just slowly started building up my own website although for some reason I suck at doing table tags althoug the div tags are extremely good.

I stumbled upon the internet, and basically found out about making websites.

Of course you need codes and such, but this host only allowed HTML, CSS and Java I think...

Anyway, so dealing with lots of codes, mainly HTML and CSS, I've picked up a few things here and there.

I'm not that advanced. I reckon I'm a beginner. I can do little switches ect.

I don't use any programs... Just do it in the database.

I might further my understanding of it... but I'm too busy at the moment, so I'm not sure on that.

The first time i study html is when i was 14 yrs old, i really doesn't like it.. coz at first, i thought working with html is too easy.. But when i started working with php, javascripts, ajax, css, it really does make sense to me.. without html, there will be no proper codings.

i learned html about 3 years after the www was public. i think i did a search on yahoo and low and behold, i found about 3 great websites. all had something different to offer. i printed out about 200 pages worth of stuff, stuck it in a notebook binder and would study a section every day. one of the sites had an online tutorial which would allow me to write in html and show me what my work looked like through each section of the online tutorial. i'm sure there are better ones out there now for anyone interested in researching it. the tutorials were good at first to learn colors and text and the format html uses for a webpage. after i learned the basics, i went on to geocities(before they merged with yahoo) and started to create my first webpage. any problem i would run in to, i searched it out in yahoo(now i like google) and found the answer. every answer to any problem i had, i would write it down and file it so if i ever forgot the solution, i wouldn't have to spend time researching it again.

html was fairly easy to learn for me only because i had already taught meyself a few languages before html. the key is understanding the rules to the language. i was never good at memorizing terms but they became easier to remember the more i used them. also, it was fairly easy for me because html is a pretty basic language and not a lot involved with it. anyone can probably learn it in a month. when you learn html though, don't confuse it with the other languages you can embed in the html document because that is when it will get more confusing until you understand how the other languages work and what they can do.

I first started using html on the original Nintendo NSider Forums. I was very new to the internet overall, and could barely handle <img> tags. biggrin.gif Over time I became interested in making websites, so I Googled 'html tutorials' and found about 5 different websites from which I learned html in about 2 months. Every now and then if I need to tone my skills I'll still use some of them for reference, and I'm ever so grateful for those websites' existences, since otherwise I would probably not be posting this in order to gain some hosting credits for my site. tongue.gif

I started in neopets lol, making banners and such. Then from there I self taught my self from google. I've only taken one class, but it was pretty much just a review (it was REALLY basic HTML though). I'm still learning more though. =]

i learned the hard way, i tought my self html from what i saw other people do. so i would just go to a page and look at the source and try to figure out what did what. and it took for ever. and i'm still learning, for some reason i have trouble with the table tags but i'm getting there.

    don't understand XHTML instead of XHTML pretending to be HTML 4.01. It's not really a
