Help advice on website design

[marine1]

Hey there guys,
I want to learn how to make websites and heard about Jommla (is that right?) to create site. Can anyone point me in the direction to learn about this? Also can one use flash on this kind of development?

Thanks gents and ladies

What is the great site called?

No site, just want to learn.

I think he means the site that you found ... what is it called?

The best way to learn (for me anyway), is to download opensource things, like osCommerce for PHP and Magento and stuff, and learn to understand how they work, and learn how the source code works ... and obviously have some reference files to explain something you don't understand/

eitai2001 - Joomla and Droople are both open source, much like oscommerce is. I started out in oscommerce which is geared specifically at developing e-commerce sites, Droople and Joomla are also PHP based, but provide more in terms of content management etc.

Yes I know, I just meant that you should play around with different open source systems and understand and play with the code, thats how you learn.

Yeah get into PHP and you can mod and write some pretty awsome stuff for the open source stuff out there.
