You could check out treehouse Learn Web Design, Web Development, and More | Treehouse. They specialize in teaching people to code online. There is also no shortage of tutorials on blogs and websites. You could look at w3c.com.

  w3c.com, will provide only the basics.
  if you are really into programing take the online video lessons from newboston's
  channel in you tube .
  
  they will provide great stuff from where you can finally begin you programming.
  also you have to be really focused to learn the advanced stuff there.

I would advise starting with just HTML/CSS and leave PHP for later. Best thing to do is to make a text file backup of the page you are altering and just start playing around, actually doing it and making mistakes will teach you 10 times faster than any video IMO.

Wordpress doesn't have much HTML, so PHP and CSS is what you need. Frankly though, is it worth it? PHP and CSS can be a task to learn for most people.

Not trying to be negative, just that it's a big learning curve.

Hi Millionair3,

WP is basically PHP and CSS so I'd recommend you to focus on these two together with HTML.

Online video tutorials & training | lynda.com has some good tutorials and they are relativly cheap.. $25 per month..

Also as mentioned above W3Schools Online Web Tutorials

and start to look here: PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor and here PHP Resources - Scripts, Codes, Applications & Software
- Thanks
