Yes, javascript works with web pages and forms and it can be really fun.

"PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.

Another scripting language gaining popularity is Python, it is object oriented - may be good to focus on that as less people know it and NASA uses it.

There's lots of other languages to like mozquito and TCL, check out this forum

Reply:HTML and Javascript are used most often to create websites. So I'd probably suggest Javascript. It is used for a lot of other things too, especially graphical and interactive type content.
Reply:javascript is a clientside language, it would be beneficial to learn it no matter what serverside language you wish to learn





I like PHP, but it tends to be not as mainstream as ASP or Java
Reply:You could also try Python. It is free and easy to learn. A few web frameworks use Python as a programming language. The Apache web server, for example, has a python module available. Django is a a pretty well known web framework that uses Python.





Ruby is another up and coming programming language. Ruby on Rails is, from what I hear, an excellent web development environment as well.
