Print designer needs to learn WEB DESIGN

I am a print designer mostly. I have always avoided web design but at this point in owning my own business I see I am turning down way too much work in the form of websites. What is the easiest way to learn. I have taught myself everything I know. I use p
hotoshop CS, In Design all of the above. Now I just need to figure out how to design a site.

I mean I know NOTHING about the web. So I feel overwhelmed with having to learn it. Should I take a class if so who teaches that. I can't even find a class at my local colleges. I know there is Version Q in In Design. Is that different than conventional w
eb design?

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Andrea,

This is an After Effects forum (not your run-of-the-mill Web Design app). Better to ask in the Indesign forum:

Also GOOGLE "Web Design Schools" or just "Web Design".

Andrea,

If you're on a Mac, there's no faster or easier program for what you want than Freeway. It runs much like QuarkXpress oddly enough, you just make pages and it creates all the HTML code for you. There are a few little quirks you need to become familiar wit
h, but it's possible to get it going in a day or so.

Find it at www.softpress.com.
