Then you shouldn't jump directly to web programming.
Haskell is a very complex and unusual language.
My advice to go as fast as possible in using Haskell for web programming is:
1. Start by [try Haskell in your browser](http://tryhaskell.org)
2. Then read the excellent [Learn you a Haskell for Great Good](http://learnyouahaskell.com)
3. If you have difficulties in understanding concepts like monads, you should really read [these articles](http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/wadler/topics/monads.html). For me they were enlightening.
4. If you feel confident, you should be able to follows the [yesod book](http://yesodweb.com/book) and if you find difficult to follows the yesod book, you should read [real world Haskell](book.realworldhaskell.org) first (it is a must read).
Also, note that:
- [haskell.org](http://haskell.org) is full of excellent resources.
- [hoogle](http://www.haskell.org/hoogle/) will be very useful
- Use [hlint](http://community.haskell.org/~ndm/hlint/) as soon as possible to get good habits.
As you should see, if you don't already know Haskell,
the path is long but I guaranty you it will be very rewarding!
