    Taking apart an existing webpage

    Probably a matter of personal taste, but I prefer Chrome's inspect to firefox's.

    What are some good videos to reintroduce me back into HTML?

    What you should do is get yourself a project. Memorizing HTML is not very useful, knowing how to design something and figuring out what HTML to use, now that is useful. Find or make yourself a project, and do it. You will gain a lot of useful skills from doing that.

    noob here, please help :)

    As mentioned, HTML cannot do this, and this would make a lot of people angry with you. It also seems like a bit of a security hole in the browser if you could do it.

    Could I make this voting system with PHP?

    The front-end would be a piece of cake to do with PHP. The back-end should be database driven. Two options for the votes tracking thing, either keep a tally on the user table (or whereever you will store your user's vital data, I always call it a user table) that gets incremented every time a...

    Redirecting multiple pages to a single page

    I would say crazycroc's solution is probably best. Another alternative is to code three different pages, but really, why would you need to. If you have different fields on the pages, you could also check for the fields in the GET syntax. Provided you validated that the fields you check are...

    Is it worth it to learn PHP OOP?

    OOP is always worth it. It multiplies the effectiveness of your code by several times, and greatly reduces the amount of code you need if you find yourself doing similar things all the time.
