Question

is javascript basic for learning html and further css??

Answer 1

JavaScript is another piece of the (web page) puzzle. Try thinking of it like this:

HTML: Markup
CSS: Layout, Style and Typography
JavaScript: Behaviors

And then there is also server-side language, as the last piece of the puzzle:
PHP: Logic and heavy lifting

Answer 2

You don't have to learn any JavaScript if you just want to make Web pages with HTML and CSS.

Answer 3

If you want to extend your web site, yes. JavaScript changes form behaviors, sort tables, creates slideshows, alters <div> locations and can even assign CSS classes to your HTML elements for you. It's not required for basic web pages, but if you want your web site to do more than just host text, images and basic links, you'll want to learn it. Check out http://codecademy.com for a primer on JavaScript.

Answer 4

I'm interpreting your question to mean "is Javascript a prerequisite for learning HTML and/or CSS", and the answer is: No.
If you meant something else, please let us know.

What exactly do you want to do?
