Recently, I have started to get into some HTML and CSS coding for websites.
I have also started learning and using PHP (the worst language in my life) and SQL.
Combining all these together to make a website that I hate and like at the same time.
Feel free to post any advice or your own work  Smile

Be sure to run your HTML code though the W3 validator, and be aware of the fact that your website will look different on different resolutions, so keep that in mind when designing your website.

Thanks, I have seen some people use Dreamweaver's built-in tool for that, it looks like a great tool, but it doesn't work at my school Sad , so I sometimes use another free validator.

That's how I started, I gained an interest in HTML, then used codecademy.com to broaden my HTML and CSS skills. Since I started running Ubuntu on a server machine, I started to learn about PHP and my SQL(with the help of Cameron), as well as how to host webservers and MySQL databases.

In our lessons we were show codeacademy and I though it was a great concept, haven't used it in a while though.
After learning various parts of HTML and CSS we started using Bootstrap and Bootswotch that is fun to mess around with, I also watched some YouTube videos on servers and gained some knowledge that way.

GeorgeTheBoy recommend me SubLime Text when I was talking to him about his site and in college we use Notepad++ and another program that has gone blank in my mind.

Sublime is great, however schools generally want you to use notepad since it doesn't auto suggest like sublime. But if you are allowed to use sublime I would highly recommend it.

Dreamweaver isn't that bad, I haven't found anything I hate about it, but I would like to try out sublime soon, it looks good. One of my teachers tried to force me to use Google Web Designer, but I refused and forced the class to use Dreamweaver.

In my book "Shortcut to Dreamweaver and SQL" there is a step by step guide to insert a recordset to insert values with dreamweaver to a database. It has 29 steps. That is 29 things you have to do to successfully insert values to a MSQL database with <input>'s and <form>'s.

I wrote my own mysql thing that has 5 steps...

At home I tend to use Brackets and Sublime <3

Dreamweaver is bad. Also, HTML/CSS isn't technically coding.

I personally use Visual Studio for HTML/CSS because I'm used to it as a .NET dev and it has a bunch of nice features.
ctrl e + d formats the entire page (does Sublime have something like this?) with tabs and the like, and then it has automatic tag completion. Not a good learning tool but once you are comfortable with making HTML pages it is a nice tool.

Can you elaborate "format the entire page?"

Let's say you have the following, one line of HTML:
Code:
<body><p>blahblah</p><div><nav></nav></div></body>

It'll end up looking more like:
Code:
<body>
     <p></p>
     <div>
          <nav></nav>
     </div>
</body>
