sorry if this is posted in the wrong folder...
A little brief background first---
I'm considering a career change from the world of architecture to the world of web design. I've done a lot of graphics work before, so I've got the visual end down. I've also got a little experience w/ web site design -- I've made a couple basic HTML sites in the past and one using ImageReady back in my school days.
So my question is---
With so many scripting languages and what not out there, how do you decide which one to dive into?
CSS sounds promising... I like the idea of seperating style & content (less code, faster loading pages, higher search engine rankings). Would I couple that w/ XHTML? Or should I go with HTML & JavaScript?
Or what about a server-side script such as PHP?
Or should I just go with a WYSIWYG editor, such as Dreamweaver? Does Dreamweaver output decent / clean code?
Thanks for any and all help!

). One never knows. The most important thing is to learn for yourself.
