Starting a website, What do I need?

[Rebirth0]

Right now I'm at school, so the message will be short.

Me and a few friends have been thinking about getting webspace and a domain name and building a website. I just want to know what all I need to do.

All I can think of is a Web hosting service, and I've been searching for one. Also, a domain name. Is there anything else I/we would need?

Also, I know that we'll need to know HTML, PHP, and MySQL(sp?). Do you know of any place where we can learn how to code? Websites, Books, whatever.

RE: Starting a website, What do I need?

I learn all my stuff like that at w3schools... very good place and has boxes to practice in where it shows the results to the right... has HTML XHTML XML lots of stuff...

Sometimes programs can hlp.. I use dreamweaver so I can see what it will b like without saving and all that but it is sort of limited without some HTML knowledge...

No need for me to wait, I'm not doing anything for at least another week anyway.

To make a good website you'll need blackjack. and booze. oh yeah, and hookers. actually, forget about the blackjack.



anyway, just search "html tutorial" on google and find one that suits you. knowing stylesheets might help too.
