What is the difference between Flash, CSS, Tables, HTML, Actionscript, and Dreamweaver?

What are the basic purposes of each of these? I can't seem to find a simple definition of what exactly they do or how they are different from each other. Please try to avoid high-level webdesign jargon but on the other hand, please don't recommend ';geocities'; or some other prefab site - I want full control over the page and currently use Adobe CS3. What should I focus on learning? Thank you!What is the difference between Flash, CSS, Tables, HTML, Actionscript, and Dreamweaver?
Flash: is a multimedia platform for all the games, animations and programs you see online that are large and fast (Java is small but slow).


CSS: are style sheets that are used to make websites look nice, margins etc.. This can be done in html, but would leave the html code messy, and unusable by many people.


Tables: are html code that create standard sized tables, as per the code in the website.


Html: code for websites, it is the actual code for all the images, flash, java and style sheets. It basically refers to all of the above, as well as breaking the site into various components.


Actionscript: is the code needed for Flash games/programs.


Dreamweaver: is a WYSIWYG editor (what you see is what you get), for html and css. It basically shows the edits you make instantaneously, and makes creating websites rather easy.What is the difference between Flash, CSS, Tables, HTML, Actionscript, and Dreamweaver?
flash is a picture animation software for the web. css is a diverse software for the web using higher general connections. tables is a coding within website to help you align the page correctly. html is a website for standard website, mainly used for word document coding. actionscript is self explain. dreamweaver is use for high video for website.
Well.. I'm going through that now.. flash is like to make a web page or web page 2D animation for the web or like those hallmark cards that move..CSS are like your type and what it looks like on the web page..


Tables.. for the layout of the web page in Dreamweaver..HTML,is type of web page and Actionscript is high end design of a web page by typing code..Dreamweaver has it all.... except flash check out lynda..com for Dreamweaver tutorials
