Before you can actually design a page, you will need to know some basics. Once you practice a few pages, you'll soon find out that it's not too difficult. I always draw up a design on paper first and answer a few questions - how do I want it to look, what do I want it to do or, what is the purpose of the web page. What colors do I want to use? What sort of headlines, graphics, etc. How much content? Keywords, key phrases, Meta tags...you will need to take all this into consideration eventually.
To learn HTML, go here: http://www.w3schools.com/html/default.asp
To learn XHTML, a stricter and cleaner version of HTML: http://www.w3schools.com/xhtml/xhtml_intro.asp
Then, you'll need to learn CSS in order to put all the formatting requirements for the HTML pages in a separate file: http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp
Here's an interesting web site where you'll get lost for hours learning various web design techniques and know-how's: http://www.dezwozhere.com/links.html
And..it might not be bad to touch a bit on writing code for cross browsers. As you probably already know, how you view a web site in Internet Explorer is not necessarily the same when you view it in Mozilla's Firefox. Look here: http://friendlybit.com/css/cross-browser-strategies-for-css/
Also, for good practice, find a website that you really like. Right-click on your mouse, and pick "view source" - this will provide you with the HTML markup of that page. You can learn quite a bit by reading and studying what this person did to design this page.
Good luck!!
