			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you want to learn how to write, tweak websites?</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve always liked computers, websites, and have recently started getting into PHP after learning xHTML and CSS.</p>
<p>Throughout this process, I&#8217;ve discovered lots of great resources and learned lots of great things.</p>
<p>Some of these are there is always something to learn or do. This stuff fascinates me.</p>
<p>If you are interested in learning more about (x)HTML (to get your feet wet <img src='http://iain.codejoust.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  ), visit my favorite tutorial for getting started in (x)HTML (and no, it isn&#8217;t HTML for dummies) &#8212; <a href="http://htmldog.com/guides/htmlbeginner/" target="_blank">http://htmldog.com</a>. There, just thumb through the tutorials, do the exercises (if you wish).</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve done that, I&#8217;d recommend looking further at <a href="http://w3schools.com">W3Schools</a> and <a href="http://tizag.com">Tizag.com</a>, both are more indepth, but they can help you find out how to do something and supplement what you&#8217;ve already done.</p>
<p>Then, consider reading the <a href="http://www.nettuts.com/">nettuts.com</a> (great all-around tutorial website) and <a href="http://cssnewbie.com/">CSS Newbie</a> (css help and interesting tutorials) and <a href="http://alistapart.com/">AlistApart.com</a> (slightly more technical, but great archives, pioneering techniques).</p>
<p>Phew! Some fun stuff to look at for learning javascript, go to <a href="http://w3schools.com/">W3Schools</a>&#8217;s tutorial and <a href="http://tizag.com/">Tizag Tutorials</a>. Then, look at <a href="http://jquery.com/">jquery.com</a> or another javascript framework, like <a href="http://www.prototypejs.org/">Prototype Javascript</a>. A good resource for jquery is <a href="http://jqueryfordesigners.com/">http://jqueryfordesigners.com/</a>.</p>
<p>And, some good PHP tutorials can be found in this article, I&#8217;ll get to more in depth ones later. &#8212; <a href="http://nettuts.com/articles/web-roundups/25-resources-to-get-you-started-with-php-from-scratch/">Nettuts PHP from Scratch</a>.</p>
<p>If you still want links <img src='http://iain.codejoust.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  look at this article (which probably includes the kitchen sink <img src='http://iain.codejoust.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> ) &#8211; <a href="http://blog.themeforest.net/resources/html-css-php-and-jquery-killer-tutorials/">blog.themeforest.net</a>.</p>
<p>If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment, and I&#8217;ll consider writing a tutorial or just emailing you if you need help.</p>
<p>When things quiet down around here, I&#8217;ll start writing my own tutorials here.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
