Web Languages & Design Challenges

Languages

I am intrigued and amazed by the vast number of languages one can learn for web applications.  Here is a list on Wikipedia.  It seems there may be as many computer languages as there are human languages.  I had no idea.  They do share two things in common: syntax (arrangement) and semantics (meaning).  From there the differences are astounding.

I think Perl, C, PHP, Java and JavaScript would be essential languages to learn if one wanted a good foothold in the web design world.

Design Challenges

I am still struggling with learning how to model and layout the divs and blocks of text and images on a web page.  I understand the theory but lack the confidence in implementing the CSS and HTML to accomplish the layout without flaws.  I will keep at it though!
