I wouldn't mind the automatic updates to be honest, if they could somehow prevent extensions from breaking constantly.

I like how Chrome does updates...seamlessly in the background, nary a complaint. All extensions work normally, no user interaction required past opening the browser.

Intriguing. I'll have to give the puzzles a try! Can't wait to be shown how little I actually know.

You probably should get a basic understanding of HTML and CSS down before moving further, as those are the fundamentals of web development.

You can use PHP, ASP.NET, even C++ to generate your pages...but it eventually has to be turned into HTML for the browser to understand it. Someone mentioned W3schools earlier, that's a great site to start with, I use it for a reference regularly.

Once you get HTML and CSS down, I'd recommend learning a little bit of PHP. Zend has a great set of beginner tutorials.

Good luck!
