Wow - the guy asks one of the most popular questions in the internet's history ("how to learn HTML") and you lay out a two year plan to make him a master of the internet. You even went so far as to suggest that you buy a domain so the guy can have a business down the road. Wow - just wow... In my business as a software trainer, I see this periodically - you get a brilliant mind/programmer/developer in the classroom to teach a class. After the course is over, the students are clueless. "He went so fast." or "I was lost after the first hour!" OP - I can't say that I fault devmonk's post provided that you actually misspoke: if you were truly looking for a two year plan so that your brother could be master of the internet with his own small business, then by all means devmonk has set you straight. If you did not misspeak - you actually want resources to help your brother to just learn HTML, it's better to ignore devmonk's post and just go to Amazon, find a book about HTML that has (a) a good history, (b) is up-to-date, and (c) has a lot of positive reviews. Hell, even a "For Dummies" or a "learn HTML in 24 hours" book would be fine at this stage. Whatever you do, don't scare your brother with a list of all that stuff.
