      None. Study TCP/IP, HTTP, CGI,ISAPI and HTML. This is the knowledge that could enable one to become a proficient web developer rather than just another script kiddie. But, that's just my opinion… I could be wrong.

I think that learning HTML and all its close relatives ( xml,xhtml,dhtml,css, ... ) is a good start. after that, learning other technologies will depend mostly of what exactly you want to achieve.

          If your objective is to become a good web developer, then you should use at least 2 of the above. That way, you learn strengths and weaknesses of particular techniques. And of course, as others have mentioned, the basics like HTML, CSS, JavaScript etc.

            If you know programming and want to get a fast start go for PHP; Easy to learn and highly efficient. You can do 80% of the work by knowing just 20% of the language. But that would be on the server side. For the client you would like to know things like javascripts, HTML/DHTML I myself prefer to use HTML/CSS and a little of javascripts Any tool is only as good as you can use it!!

              it is agreed with previous posts. Especially Palbano as knowing why something works will help you make things that work so much better. You dont need to be an expert, but you should definatly have a solid understanding of the general concepts involved. HTML, XML, XHTML and CSS are pretty much prerequisites and should be considered as such. Again, mastery is good, but a solid understanding is better. When it comes to scripting languages, the more the better, but it depends on what type of developer you plan on being and who your clientelle are (going to be) ... if you are going to work in a windows shop or focus on that , then PHP and Perl arent going to be as important as ASP, .NET per se. I will say that aside for PERL, once you learn one language and get good with it... other languages will be much easier to learn. Javascript and any ECMA scripting language will all just make sense. EG. If you know/learn C/C++/C# , then Javascript and Actionscript would be simple for you. If you know PERL, them PHP will make more sense to you and be much easier to learn. That is my 2 Cents.

                You need to learn two generic type of languages, one for client scripting which is evaluated locally on your computer and the other the server side scripting which is evaluated[processed] on the server side.

                Clientside: javascript,vbscript
                (mostly for IIS),jscript and the most recommended ECMA script
                Server side:ASP, ASP.Net -->Mostly IIS servers
                JSP -->Java Server Pages for Apache,WebLogic and Sun Servers
                PHP -->Open source, both Unix and windows

                Best advice I can give is: Please go to: http://www.w3c.org There is no point in learning by heart, it is more like learning by doing.
