www.w3schools.com

ALL you'll ever need to do anything on the web at your age.

Sorry for noobyness but where on w3schools does it show how to code layout

Its not as if learning to code a layout is specific coding just learn about css and div layers etc..

W3 schools is ok for reference but as tutorals **** is an understatment, for basic html which is a good starting point id suggest reading the html primers on http://htmlgoodies.com then building from there.

Did you just say making a layout in PowerPoint?

Christ, I thought making a layout in MS Word was bad.

I learned by experimenting; I suggest you do the same - the best way of learning.

If you're really serious about learning to make a layout, then you need to know xhtml/css.
If you know html that is great, cos you'll pick up xhtml pretty easy, but if you're really interested in making layouts you should buy a book, because i find sitting in front of a screen just reading and reading makes me tired :P

but yeah, from luke x :)

I'm not sure, but I've not seen any css tut's before, and would be willing to make one? :]

I just learned by downloading a sample layout then editing it to suit my needs. Then started with my own layouts and went from there. It really is easy.

Well people do it in publisher then goto file > export to html or whatever
