I thought you already started with the w3schools tutorial. In my opinion, this is one of the best on internet. Follow the w3schools tutorial while practising with a good editor.

I recommend you these editors with HTML and CSS syntax highlighting.

Komodo Edit is a very nice free editor.

Notepad++

Dreamweaver is also a nice IDE but it's not free.

There is no quick method to learn things properly like swallowing an energy tablet . You will have to spend a considerable amount of time on learning and practising things carefully.

Great I will do that.

I couldn't start learning yet because I had a freelancing project to complete that I got after so many days.

By the way, The most interesting thing I like to see in this whole world is getting a reply to my posts in EC. I always check emails after I make a new thread in ROBOT.LK to find out about replies

By the way, Can you tell me how did you learn HTML when you were studying it ? I like to know it, since I can get ideas from that too.

And also can you tell me thing to make in HTML to grab things well?

And also in these days I have so many things in my mind to learn.(Actually full of things. I can't decide how to start)

I need to learn Magento(Mostly making custom magento themes) and Joomla for freelancing.
and HTML and Java
and of cource need to study for BIT.

So please guide me to learn these simultaneously?

I can't decide how should I start.

I really need to learn these simultaneously if not i will have to face so many problems.

By the way, Can you tell me how did you learn HTML when you were studying it ? I like to know it, since I can get ideas from that too.

I didn't study it intentionally. I just have to write few web based projects in the uni and at job. So I referred some books and lot of Internet to learn. Whenever I need to do something I don't do usually, I used to learn it and do it. I'm sure this is what people usually do. But this is not enough for professional web development. You will have to touch things systematically. That's why I recommended to to follow w3schools tutorial. According to my knowledge this is very good. Whenever I forget HTML, I used to refer w3schools.

And also can you tell me thing to make ... ings well?
Follow the tutorial and practice the things you learn. Later you can make a little website to test your knowledge.

I need to learn Magento(Mostly making custom magento themes) and Joomla for freelancing.

When you finish the tutorial I'm sure you'll be able to directly start with template making without any problem.

and of cource need to study for BIT.

BIT is very important. With a degree, you'll be able to find a good job or start your own company, etc... with lots of confidence.

So please guide me to learn these simultaneously?

By considering the work load in BIT, I guess 5 days BIT, 2 days HTML/CSS. We can get some ideas from others as well.

I like to know if I can do all in one day.

By the way, I can only study from Morning to 2PM because then a buyer told me he would give me projects and also help me to learn Magento theme building. But I have time all day long in Saturday and Sunday I have Martial Arts class at 2PM.

So I need to find a way to do all the studies in those time schedules.

So tell me a way to divide the day for studies. I need little free times too I also need to learn Java with all the others too.

Is this going off topic

So tell me a way to divide the day for studies.

It's not going to work. What I think will work is, you prepare a plan and submit here for ideas. You are the person who knows about you better than anyone else.

Since I still didn't register for BIT and didn't get VLE login info.

I can reserve whole week for HTML/CSS(Magento and Joomla) and Java

Then do as you said
