Is Learning Html Necessary For Webmasters ?

Recommended Posts

HTML and CSS should be essential skills to any webmaster, with knowledge of Javascript (for AJAX or JQuery) and PHP an added bonus.For create a website where users can register, you will probably need to learn PHP (or ASP if you prefer) in order to handle server side processing of data, in addition to learning SQL which will allow you to communicate with a database containing the user information.However, I would recommend using ready-built solutions in this case rather than building a PHP and SQL database application from scratch. This is because besides coding the functions, there are other stuff to considering like input validation for security reasons, which is a bit more advanced, and which have already been considered in the development of these pre-built solutions. An example of a pre-built solution is BuddyPress which is based off the popular Wordpress blog publishing platform.

Usually, if you just go through websites, and read some of the source, you can grasp the concept of such things. There are so many websites out there that make HTML so easy. I remember when I was 12 years old learning.. thought I was so smart to learn a new "programming" language. It's really very easy to grap and understand. But so many places have made it virtually possible that you don't even need to know HTML. An unfortunate part, for society, to be honest. Everyone should learn some basics of HTML if they plan on building a website.I had avoided learning PHP or anything new for years. The last thing I learned was Javascript and DHTML. But recently, after almost 10 years of not really touching HTML, I'm back in the game and I've even learned some of the basics of PHP!I didn't read a book or anything. I learned it through trial and error, looking at code, seeing what it does, seeing what happens if I remove it or add it somewhere else, and that's how I learned. Can't say I'm a Pro. But I know more than I did a month ago.Good luck ;)
