Newbie needs help!!! (What programs to learn)

[ozcorpion]

Hi there!

I´m a newbie, that is starting to learn flash 8. But i´m a bit confuse...not with flash (cause i´m learning good) but with WHAT should i learn together. Should i start to learn together Action Script? XML? CSS? Photoshop? Or should i learn just flash? What should i do???

I want to be a web designer but i would like that you guys tell me how would be a good way to start learning, or what is most important.

I really want to learn... so any help is welcome :)

Thanks a lot

Well if you want to be a web designer do you know HTML? If not then get cracking. If you know HTML then start working on CSS, how else are you going to make your pages look pretty? Once you've got the basics of CSS down work on PHP to make your pages dynamic. Keep learning flash all the way through so by the time you're fluent in PHP you'll have some interesting things to post on a website.

thanks a lot for the tips :) I know just the basics of html... so i will try to learn better. Just another thing... and about action script? Should i learn together with flash?

Once again thanks

well, you use actionscript to make the flash interactive.
after you get the basic idea of flash, then learn some actionscript

Learn PHP to go along with Flash is my strong suggestion.
