Learning Order

I figured this might be the best way for me to learn some web development languages. First setting some goals then reading as many books as possible. After that, start some projects and keep practicing. Please tell me if I would be doing anything wrong or what I should be doing. Thanks
  1. HTML
  2. XHTML
  3. CSS
  4. XML
  5. PHP
  6. JavaScript
  7. Ruby on Rails
  8. AJAX
This might be the wrong forum category. I really wasn't sure where to post it, thanks.

Re: Learning Order

I'd suggest rearranging the list in this order...

XHTML
XML
CSS
PHP
JavaScript
AJAX
Ruby on Rails

html and xhtml are almost the exact same.. IMO it makes no sense to learn them separately. xhml is just a new implementation of HTML that is cleaner and easier to read... that is unless i'm completely getting mixed up somewhere...

Also XML isn't technically a language. It's a way of storing data. but some websites do use it to write their webpages
