I don't know if you have covered this in the weeks before I started, but the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) own and publish the specifications for X/HTML, CSS and more. Their site is at http://w3.org the HTML4.01 spec is at http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/ (http://http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/) (look at elements and attributes for the code), XHTML1.0 is at http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/ (http://http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/) (this describes the changes between XHTML and HTML4.01, but you'll still need the HTML specs for all the tags), and CSS is here: http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/ (http://http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/).
The specs can be hard to read (and with CSS, understand), but this is where everything officially lives. Shout if you don't understand!
