How long did it take you to learn Html??

It took me about 2months to learn the basics lmao. I need a tuturial that has it all or a website.i would like it if someone did it. Thats why i get my friends to help me But they are nice friends thats why.

Like 2 people have helped me Sten and Habble Sten Owns www.habbofront.com which uses Asta as its host and www.habble-aus.com which uses Asta as its host. so this must be a good host because 2 good sites that have expert Htmlers so need help?? Pm Them.

Well, learning it really does not take that long. (Took me a few hours of experimenting to get the basic tags down) Actually getting good at it takes far, far longer. There's always going to be new stuff to learn, so the cycle is rather endless. I've found the w3school''s html tutorial to be good (link: http://www.w3schools.com/html/). However, I think the best thing you could do is pick up a book, because those are really more comprehensive than anything you can find online.

Afterwards, you don't really need books. Just set a goal in mind and start creating a site. Eventually, you'll reach problems along the way and you'll have to look around to find answers to. There, you've just added to the experience factor. :-)

Good luck!

same with me, it didnt take too long to learn it but actually learning to use it good took ages and learning the more advanced like hidden things.

html isnt that brilliant by the way. it cant do everything like i no u think it can.

Good question, it is a bit hard to remember that actually, it has been quite a few years.

Though I would honestly say I learnt to use it quite quickly, maybe a few days, and I mean use it reasonably well.

But that was coming from a background of already scripting and programming in general, so it was much easier to grasp it, even if it is a bit different.

It didn't take me long to know the basics, it did take a bit longer to get a bit more advanced (as in using style="" which is basicaly using CSS in HTML) but it takes me a lot less time to forget it . So I constantly have to refresh my memory to remember all the HTML codes and tags and etc ...

at the start of last year, i started getting more advanced in html.

about half way through the year, i like forgot most stuff except the basics.

i started learning it again and now im really good at it. i also learnt css while i was at it.

ive never forgotten it since

I took me a few weeks to learn it properly. After that I started learning javascript and css, then php.

I only needed a few minutes to understand basic html tags (html, head, title, body).

But table, tr, td, th and div made me a bit headache for next few hours. And one next day I studied tag's attributes and it really impressed me, so I went to the next step : CSS. And the journey is still going on until now...

Yeah even now, some tags can be an absolute pain under certain circumstances, especially when you bring CSS into the mix.

I frequently use a variety of CSS and HTML tags/selectors, so I remember at least 75% of the CSS and almost 100% of HTML elements (not attributes though). I also work with other languages such as PHP, MySQL, XML, XSLT and at rare occasions SVG. I am getting better at remembering stuff from PHP/MySQL, as for XML, you invent your own tags.

XHTML is a bit different from HTML, mostly syntax but other stuff too. I work in XHTML mostly, but I mustn't forget Internet Explorer
