Rates for PHP start around £250 per day up to around £350 per day. Good Javascript developers (and I mean good - client and server side with decent framework backgrounds) can earn upwards of £450 per day.
However your best bet is to look here http://www.jobstats.co.uk/ and do some searches.
From a return on investment point of view you are probably better focusing on Java and .Net, however if you are creative then focus more on CSS jobs.
The most important thing is to stick with technologies that are popular and to ALWAYS be learning.
Good luck!
