Not interested in other languages, well maybe a bit of JQuery..

I'm new to programming an essentially only really need to add custom modules into wordpress and how to do tables with tables...

cheers guys! Need to learn html and css, booked myself on a very basic web page course at college so hopegully that will get me started on html.

Found a few books on html and css, but am struggling to understand float and positioning..

As for PHP I think I'm gonna park it until I'm pretty ok with html and css. I'll always use joomla/wordpress but I am really gonna struggle with wordpress static pages hehe.

PHP I wanted to learn so I could build simple tables in PHP and call them into positions in wordpress.
