    Hi all,

    I am basically a programmer worked for last 1.5 yrs in legacy(AS400) systems. I would like to learn one of the new gen web technologies.
    I have some basic knowledge of html(maybe nil). Please suggest the topics which i should start learning. I prefer learning PHP, but before that what are the key concepts like html that one should be aware of? I am struggling to hit a flow of topics so that i need not go back and learn html in the middle of php.
    Also please share some useful online resources..

    Thank you all in advance :)

    Railsonruby.com is an open source web application framework for the Ruby programming language. It is often referred to as 'Rails' or 'RoR'. RoR features several tools intended to make commonplace development tasks easier 'out of the box'. RoR includes a database access library - Active Record. Technologies used are substruct, Simple Ticket, Mystic, Geego cms, Radiant. Rails is also noteworthy for its extensive use of the JavaScript libraries Prototype and Script.aculo.us for Ajax.
