As Ross says, concentrate on learning Dreamweaver and HTML.

HTML is a minefield of incompatibility problems, and if you want to get you sites to work on anything other than IE6 you'll have to be mindful of that.

I recomend that you install Opera 7, the latest Mozilla release, and the old Netscape navigator 4.x. Don't worry if your site looks crap on Netscape 4.x, just worry if you can navigate the site and read the contents.

I recomend you look into learning about Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and XHTML, as these are both the now and the future of web site design. But always be mindful of the incompatabilities of different browsers.

The www.alistapart.com web site will be a good start for these issues. You can find any browsers you need in the Browser archive at http://browsers.evolt.org/ (not you cannot install more than one version of internet explorer at once)

So good luck, you'll find that trial and error will lead you to the results you want.

As you come from a graphics design background I have one last tip for you, go easy on the images and don't expect your site to look the same on all browsers, you'll never achieve that.
