Learn HTML: it's like XML, but with some pre-defined elements such as p, ul, ol, li, input, etc.
Learn CSS: # for id's, . for classes, all the other selectors you look up if you ever need them.

Congrats, you now know the basics.
The next step will be to actually use it and find out that everything does not work as you'd expect Sigh | :sigh:
horizontal/vertical-alignment? Never works.
width? Only works when the moon and stars are aligned every 1000 years.
line-height? Only on uhhh... That one element... You know?
margin? Works when the width of the height is the size of the alignment of the parents child's parent width height size.
float? For when you really want to mess up everything.

I could go on, but there's only one conclusion I can make.
HTML/CSS is the worst piece of crap 'technology' that's currently known to men (followed closely by Crystal Reports).
It's not about learning it, because the idea is simple. It's about using it a lot, finding out all the quirks and inconsistencies, remembering them, and then knowing how to solve something the next time (but you probably forgot already and need to try out different combinations again). That's the true nature of HTML/CSS Sigh | :sigh:
Read my (free) ebook Object-Oriented Programming in C# Succinctly.

Simplicity is prerequisite for reliability.
