CSS or PHP

Which should I focus on learning? I much rather do backend development. I know HTML pretty well, and I’m pretty familiar with CSS , just not to the point of putting together complex designs. I know how to use CSS , and understand it.

So my question is… Since I want to focus on backend development, should I say screw CSS (I was planning on studying it much more) and just start learning PHP ?

learn both.

CSS so you can out all the designs together, then PHP to create the actual content

HTML & css is a must know, PHP is ideal as everyone wants cm’s and similar sites so knowing PHP will help you a lot

Thanks for the input!

^^ what he said!

CSS is highly simplistic and doesn’t offer much of a challenge so do that first because it won’t take you long, and then jump on PHP after. PHP is more challenging language, and there’s so many aspects to grasp; it will keep you occupied for a while.

This is what I figured. I understand a vast majority of CSS , just peicing websites together is where my experience lacks right now

CSS is mandatory for both web designers and developers. PHP is arguably less useful for a web designer, although I know many web designers are starting to do some light PHP stuff as well. But please, if you do decide to learn PHP , learn it properly. It’s frustrating to see lots of spaghetti PHP code floating on the Internet.

Well, as long as you think Jeff’s code is the “proper way”, then I shall be good Jeff’s tutorials do wonder’s for learning!

If you can only learn one at a time, CSS is the obvious choice.

I can definately learn more than one at a time, but I like to focus on one at a time to get proficient in it. Focus 100% on that particular aspect and I tend to learn it way faster and get a better understanding.
