According to the W3C here are what any web developer should know to make professional web pages--having your own website made by yourself.
- HTML 4.01: it is the language of the web.
- The use of CSS (cascading style sheets): External style sheets enable you to change the appearance and layout of all the pages in your Web, just by editing a single CSS document. Knowing CSS will save you a lot of work.
- XHTML: it stands for Extensible HyperText Markup Language. It is the future of HTML.
- XML:it stands for Extensible Markup Language. It cannot replace HTML. While HTML will display data, XML will describe and carry data. XML is more of an independent tool for transmitting and storing data.
- XSLT: it stands for Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations. It is a language for transforming XML. XSLT transform XML into a format recognizaed by any web browsers (different web browsers deliver different data from web servers).
- Client side scripting: it is used to program the behavior of the Internet browser.
- Server side scripting: it is used to program the the Internet server.
- SQL: is the standard of accessing databases.
There you have it. Slowly learn each of them and you will be making professional web pages.
