need to learn HTML/ web design

Anybody have any suggestions of where to start as well as some decent software. Not being able to build websites is a handicap in this field. I'd be obliged for any help from all you pros out there

w3schools.org
copy of notepad

your set.

Couldn't agree more, that's how I learnt (still learning) also, might want to check out www.htmlgoodies.com which is pretty decent. I also learnt alot from viewing other websites code

One of the best software packages out there for picking up html fairly quickly is macromedia dreamweaver, check that out also.

Good book from borders ! Take a look in the computer section.

you may want to try Webmonkey.com, I learned alot there, and they not only tell you how to do things but they get deeper into the theory also.

Try htmlgoodies, learned a lot from there!

yeh johhny i think thats a really good way to start aswell. i think you can learn alot from the way people do their work. so as to allow you as the designer to work to your own potential and get better.

best of luck

Perhaps my tutorial will help. - http://talkfreelance.com/thread2070.html

I learnt from Funkychickens.com. Then moved on to w3Schools.com
