that's a nice book for learning html/css. Afterwards, you'll probably want to pick up another book specifically on CSS since css is very deep. Are you attempting web development?

U seem deep into this, what certs do u have?

I've been thinking about going for an a+ just to see if I can do it. I don't know if I want to work in IT, but I do like the challenge of learning something new. How long do you think it would take a novice? And should I know the sh1t in the A+ exam before I attempt programming?

I don't have any certs. Certs aren't needed for programming. They are needed if you are going into help desk, networking and things of that nature. Programming is more along the lines of you actually being able to make something and creating a portfolio of sorts. I'm several months into learning it, specifically HTML/CSS and javascript, but I know a bit of PHP...
