I absolutely second that! ;-)

(although iframes for certain things are a good idea). Also never use tables to lay your website out. A lot of people still do, but I would not even consider it a poor-man's-layout, rather it is and always has been a terrible idea. Divs were invented specifically for layout of websites. Just a heads up. Tables are however good for displaying tabular data.

Yep! I strictly separate markup (XHTML) & layout (CSS), and this really gives
one great freedom.

The following is really absolutely essential (simple, as it may seem):

http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_boxmodel.asp

This model is valid for just about any (X)HTML element. (XHTML is just HTML 4.01 with
a few restrictions, in order to make it XML compliant.)

A recommendable resource is the HTML Writers Guild at http://www.hwg.org/.
Those are really nice folks (as on this list ;-).


Just taking a glance around the web, I came across this, http://webdesign.about.com/od/tables/a/aa122605.htm, which goes over what to use tables for and what tabular data is. About.com is always a pretty good source for information, and I trust them on a lot of things. While they don't specialize in much of anything I would take a look.

http://www.W3Schools.com has the most up-to-date tutorials on HTML and CSS, which are the two technologies you need to learn to achieve the creation of a decent website, even if it is simple.

Adfter taking a brief glance, at least I fail to understand this.

    I use a plain text editor. If you're going to be doing any sort of even
    half-serious web design, I highly recommend several methods of learning
