Jmannx Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 I am new to web design and i have been wanting to create a website but i wanna do it by hand not use some lame website to help me create it-- I wanna write my own code. Should i draw out the website first then go through and learn what i need to or do the opposite.Basically I am just asking for advice from people who have experience. Which would be the better route to go, and help me learn html 5 or xhtml, css, and so on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
es131245 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 html css js xhtml ajax jquery php mysql flashw3schools.com is very good site to start from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birbal Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 it would be better to draw thw site and its layouts somewhere. people use papers or digital garphic software like photoshop or both for doing this. once you finalize the layout start coding it html and css. learning from HTML>CSS>PHP>MYSQL>JAVASCRIPT would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
es131245 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Birbal, why did you put javascript after php? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birbal Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 because it is possible to make fully functional website or application witihout JS but not without PHP... JS mainly used for user experiance (for commonly used website). so JS could be letssprioritize while learning things. though it could be interchangable with PHP depending upon the purpose of site or individuals goal though (like if you are making js game ). that is the order i learned those languages. personally, I prefer to learn in need to know basis. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niche Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 (edited) birbal is right about the language order. IMO I suggest you emphasize function over form in the beginning. Otherwise, you'll burn-up a lot of time learning how to render some gee-whiz effect that you may never use or use in a tortured way just because you've plowed so much time into it. Do the tutorials and get something up that works and isn't sloppy. Aesthetics will come from doing. Edited October 2, 2012 by niche Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divinedesigns1 Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 php is a little easier to learn than js, well my order would be html, css, php, mysqli, js, jquery then my other would be c+ and c++ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birbal Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 (edited) If there is C++ (even C) in list i would make it top of priority. if you know C++ well it will be far more easier to pick up php even java (other class based languages) and in general programing foundation. it was C++ which was my first programing language i learnt and it was also in my foundation semester and i loved it alot. C++ itself helped me alot for learning other languages in later. Edited October 2, 2012 by birbal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely if you did take some C or C++ classes you would find out a lot of details you overlooked when trying to learn PHP. Programming principles are the same for every language.
