Excellent online magazine for webdevelopers. Got a wast amount of in-depth articles on anything webdesign related. Even the business side of doing webdesign and dealing with clients.

 

 

HTML & CSS

 

HTML Dog — http://www.htmldog.com/

Recommended for HTML and CSS. It doesn't just teach you HTML and CSS, but also best practices which will be of great value.

Westciv — http://westciv.com/style_master/house/index.html

Very good for CSS and accessibilities considerations. If you take the time to go through their "Complete CSS Guide" (

) you'll end up with a very good understanding of CSS.
