Does anybody know where a free and competent guide to learning HTML is on the net?

what i did in there, i did in a day.. the matrix formed later, at a substantially accelerated rate.

seriously, one day before i had my first page that i considered passable to the public.. tables and forms took a little longer, the whole past 5 years has been part of the learning process...

Warning: Do not learn HTML. You will be tainted forever.

Learn XHTML 1.1 Strict and CSS. By the time you get good at using it, it'll be the thing to be doing...

I learned much the same way CaptainMike did. All I did was view the source code on websites that I thought had a good design or some cool design tricks. I found a few online tutorials, but none of them are complete. One of the better ones I found is PageResource.com. It also has some tutorials for JavaScript and CSS.

Ultimately, I did break down and buy a book. I'm reading the O'Reilly series' HTML & XHTML: The Definitive Guide. I haven't gotten very far into it.

Picard: Mr. Crusher, what's our maximum speed this week?
Wesley: [checking manual] Uh, 9.4, sir.
Picard: Very good. Take us to Warp 9.8 then.
Wesley: Aye, sir. Warp 9.2 it is.
