Hello I'm a high school student looking to learn web design on my own time and I have no idea where to look for a good book or website or a book I can download.

Thank you in advanced.
 


You are looking for books of php/mysql but you want to be a webdesigner? In this case I would rather go with html/css! :)

php/mysql is the backend while html/css/javascript is the frontend. What exactly do you want to do?

I agree with this. HTML/CSS/JS compliment design skills much more than PHP. I'm not saying don't learn PHP, do because programming is a great skill set to have, just start with HTML/CSS/JS first.

Actually to elaborate on this more. HTML/CSS/JS is actually an extremely powerful combination.

Recently I've found myself using less and less PHP and more and more JS. Javascript has come a long way with the libraries that exist. Also more specifically you should learn jQuery. It's a great framework / library which is probably the most broadly used.

Also try to stick with HTML5 and use something called the HTML5BoilerPlate. I use it for all my new sites.
