If You are graphic designer, You should learn also some simple coding too. If You are new to this simple coding, You could find this resources useful. I listed few resources, I prefer to learn from and hopefully You’ll learn something too. This article isn’t very long, because I think You should choose just one place, where to learn from.
Okay, no more long discussions – enjoy!
HTML Dog has been dishing out healthy code treats since 2003, and currently serves up around 1,500,000 page views a month. The idea is to take the somewhat convoluted official specs for XHTML and CSS and present them in a much more readable fashion.
Very useful HTML and CSS tutorial place, teaching You everything step by step – best practices, standards and code with “easy to understand” example. Give it a shot, You won’t regret it! I am only sorry about that, I didn’t knew about this place at the first time, when I tried to learn how to do simple coding. My favorite.
W3Schools is the largest web developers site on the Internet. This was the first place where I started to learn basics. Personally I think those tutorials are a bit outdated, but W3C is founding place where just everything started.
Excellent site providing really helpful and complete guide to creating web pages. There is bunch of other useful resources like HTML Quick List with complete list of HTML tags, forum where to ask unclear questions and of course wide range of tutorial list.
HTML Goodies intended purpose is to help new and growing website developers learn their trade, and to provide them with tips, guides and reference sets for their use as they become more accomplished. If You are interested in HTML, MySpace HTML, learning the basics and also..colors, how to create buttons and much, much more. A huge resource roundup.
Tizag was designed to teach beginner web programmers how to use HTML and CSS. Also if You are getting deeper in web development, You can learn also JavaScript, PHP, Perl, AjaX, ASP, VBScript, XML, SQL, MySql, some useful tools and much, much more.
Great site allowing You to play with HTML online – check out demo, do everything in 5 steps – choosing tag, read description, select tag from sample code, modify the atributes and finally see demo online. Pretty handy.
I wanted to highlight this resource page, because of its well written language in easy to understand way. Everything is clearly listed on “Full Index” page teaching You not only how to create Your very first homepage, but also how to style it with CSS, add spice with Javascript and create it accessible and SEO friendly.
This is one more site You must have in Your bookmarks, if You are web developer. You can not only learn whole coding basics there, but also You will find everything from free webspace to host your site to graphics, programs, online developer tools and applets that will help you make it look nice.
DaveSite also offers comprehensive overview how to use HTML, but this one is special because guide also teach You how to set up Your domain and hosting.
BraveNet offers a huge list of different useful resources, widgets, tools. This site has been over the web for about 10 years, so I am sure You’ll find out something useful too. And yes, that’s not all, of course, You can get HTML, CSS and FTP tutorials over there too.
A List Apart Magazine explores the design, development, and meaning of web content, with a special focus on web standards and best practices.
Excellent page to check on the latest web development news and also find out some nifty codes. Must subscribe web page!
This is just small list about resources I found out, but I think this could be enough to choose. These are the best pages I found. And yes, if You know some more please, share with us too.
And I must apologize for this long pause, I must tell You, this is because session in my academy is coming, so I must spend most of my time learning and getting my works done.

















Thank you very much for the links and the reviews! I found the one website that spoke to me in a language I could understand and was very laid back in its teaching.
The fellow who authored the site is called Iron Spider and he is really good at breaking things down so you understand why you must do things in a certain order. I learned almost everything I use from this site, and refer back to it daily.

Thanks for posting,

@Dainis Yes, yes, videos are perfect. But I prefer to read the blogs and to try to do specific areas of sites that I like, that I think be useful.
In portuguese is very difficult to find videos tutorials, but we have many good blogs.
Better solution? wow, I Think that is time to practice and to test ideas found in blogs. Same being very simple, it is necessary to create own variations so that it is easy to implement in the work, when necessary.

usefull list. thank you..

Two fantastic new resources which have just been launched are the Sitepoint HTML Reference and the Opera Web Standards Curriculum.
Both are very up to date and you can be sure that the techniques demonstrated are the latest and greatest.
Sitepoint also have the Sitepoint CSS Reference for when you are ready to start adding some style and are working on a JavaScript reference.
The Opera Web Standards Curriculum also covers CSS with JavaScript to follow, but as well as that there are articles on accesibility, information architecture and various other aspects of web design and development.
Highly recommended.
Great sites, I have a few bookmarked. I suppose, in order to learn, I should actually look at them!

@Kroska actually I learn the best from video tutorials – it’s like one by one with teacher, who can repeat You unclear states as much times as You want. I cannot imagine some better solution. What’s Your opinion?
HtmlDog and w3school collects everything that need the beginners, that when we spoke about markup.
But they really need put yours hand to work, to create several examples to associate to future needs.
ok sorry for my bad english
one great place to see many tests is http://www.brunildo.org/test/
what do you think on the best form of learning? do u think about?
2, 5, and 11 were the sites that I had learned from in the very beginning when I learned and picked up HTML. Gotta give them the credit for helping me becoming a much better developer and freelancer. :)
