    If you want to become a developer, you should atleast be learning the bare-bones of SQL and making database queries.

    Flash actionscripting is cool, but for what you say you want to accomplish not the best choice. You'll want something you can add, modify, delete, and update content with - hence a database.

    You can learn flash with XML for that purpose, but you'd still probably want server side skills to edit the XML file, plus XML is not great if you are doing a big site.

    I'm learning ruby on rails - http://www.rubyonrails.com
    which I find valuable but challenging. There is great support in the online community for learning it though.
