You can expand beyond what you learned at Codecademy with w3schools ( http://www.w3schools.com/ )
Also, try out Javascript while youre at it on CA, if you want to make interactive webpages

BLF does research
Learn JavaScript & make scripts for blf like uncle Steve.
I'm still not too sure how to put user scripts and JavaScript together to modify websites

Nice job
I did CSS, HTML, PHP, Javascript, and jQuery (Its not a language by itself, rather its a Javascript based library)
It really comes in handy
Anyway, good luck with your developer skills

thanks!

The first programming I ever did was html/CSS on Codeacademy. A while later I tried learning Torquescript, annoyed a lot of people in coding help, waited a year and picked it up again.

I'm still not too sure how to put user scripts and JavaScript together to modify websites

Userscripts just run Javascript on the page. An example would be increasing the size of the quick reply box. (If you don't have the quick reply box enabled then you're not browsing properly).

Code: [Select]
// ==UserScript==
// @name         Bigger Quick Reply Box
// @namespace    setro.org
// @version      0.1
// @description  bigger is better
// @author       Setro
// @match        http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=*
// @grant        none
// ==/UserScript==

var quickReply = document.getElementsByName("message")[0]; // Returns an array of every element with the "message" name attribute, just like our quick reply box. I can't think of any instance where a textarea would be used in a topic besides quick reply so we're just going to use the first index.
quickReply.style.height = "150px"; // Set the style height as 150px.

I commented it.
Also at the top @match determines what URL you want to run it on. In this case it'll run on any topic.

i never seem to finish any courses
but i am working on python atm. i feel that html was super easy

code academy will teach you the basics and then dump you off with that. you can learn a lot by just richarding around with html/css and googling when you need to learn how to do a specific thing

Get dreamweaver or whatever and forget arround with it

dreamweaver is super unnecessary, sublime text or even notepad++ will suit you fine

I had to use dreamweaver for a class once, it's atrocious
