I have taught myself the basics of PHP (with the help of this awesome forum) I have all the basic (most common stuff on the web) stuff down fairly well. Now I am trying to figure out the best thing to learn next for web design and development. I was thinking javascript, so i can progress into ajax. Then i have noticed alot of mention of xml in my reading on ajax. So, should I first learn xml, then get js basics, and then focus on ajax??

XML is needed when you want to interface with some API's, but most of them now support JSON too. In my opinion I'd learn js/AJAX first, and XML when you need to.
