  2. You specifically said web *design*, so:

    1. General design and layout - that means knowing how to use a pencil and paper to draw up a design, indeed.
    2. HTML/XHTML
    3. CSS/XML/XLST
    4. JavaScript

    And maybe
    5. Server-side scripting (PHP, ASP, Perl - in order of popularity)
    6. Database Management (MySQL, SQL, PostGres)

    If you’re talking about web *development*, then it’s a slightly different list:

    1. HTML/XHTML
    2. XML
    3. Server side scripting (PHP, ASP, Perl)
    4. Database Management (MySQL, SQL, PostGres)
    5. Client side Scripting (JavaScript, or VBScript in a controlled, Internet Explorer-only environment)
    6. XSS/XLST
    7. Basic layout and design

    The difference between a web *designer* and a web *developer* is that - ideally - a web designer should need no knowledge of the intricacies of scripting and programming (or even CSS, for that matter, other than realizing what is and isn’t possible).

    It’s the web *developer’s* job to make a design work.
