I know my problems have been aluded to in more than one thread, but I just can't seem to find it. Actualy, I am a bit bewildered by the jargon being tossed about and decided to post first and search later...poor form, I know, but hey..Im envoking my newbie rights.
First off...
I created my website by handcode html back in 1997. It's been through quite a few modifications as I fiddled with tables, frames and finally frontpage. Its been up and funtionable for two years without any major revamps.

(btw I know the nav bars and title bars aren't working. I've posted a question up on another section in this forum on that. please help there if you can)
I quit my job in japan, moved to australia and decided to redo my webpage with a bit of pizazz...you know, PHP, SSI, MySQL and perhaps even a bit of CSS (ha!)
Some concerned friends bought me books on Dreamweaver (as well as a copy of Dreamweaver MX), fireworks 4, PHP/MySQL 4 Dummies (can I actually list titles) and now after reading them and attempting several test pages, I can now say I'm confused.
So basically I wonder if PHP, MySQL, CSS, SSI, CGI's and CSS can be used together. Would it be overkill. I've read the books and I got a general idea of PHP, MySQL, CSS and a few tutorials of CGI's and SSI's. but Im afraid I cant see the forest bc of the trees.
