How many of you know HTML and how long did it take you to learn it?

The more you do the faster/better you'll be. The hardest part is understanding it, understanding the structure (open and closed tags)

Have a look in this thread How did you learn web design? You might find some useful imformation

I picked it up from designing websites. Originally basic ones using GUI website creators like Ms Frontpage. But more and more so switched writing websites/code in notepad. (where you learn tags/css and such).

I'm still learning in newer websites I create about the best most efficient way to do things.

Getting W3C standards to ensure it works in all browsers is something that takes some time too. I can get sites W3C HTML and CSS Compliant and working in IE Opera Netscape. But the Mozilla browsers (supposedly W3C compliant) are the ones i always have trouble with alignment and such.

It took me a while, but only because I wasn't interested at first. I only started to pick it up as my need to create better sites increased as there's only so much you can do in a WYSIWYG HTML editor.

a good way to get around learning it is to use a program that will turn everything to code for you. I use sitespinner and it works out just fine i like it.

Most html is learned threw trial and error but it's very easy to learn as compared to any other coding if you do anything else. I actually took a course back in HS but often refered (and still refer) to this site htmlgoodies.com it's a great site for basic html it has primers and that sort of thing. If when you advance more it has css, php, and other tutorials that you could look at and learn more. Hope this helps!
