Hello all at [Kirupa.com](http://Kirupa.com)

I got to say, this is a “happy” place. Thanks.

So I got wind of my job ending in a year, and I would like to know what skills as a web developer I should really hone in on in order to be irresistable to the job market?

Any thoughts? Suggestions? I have good knowledge of xhtml, css, xml, and am learning php slowly. What else?

Thanks for the responses! :thumb2:
