    For just making basic websites you should just use html and css stylesheets. These are the most common.
    If you wanted further functionality I would recommend using php and javascript.
    It depends on how much you already know. There are so many tutorials and stuff out there to teach you the basics and the advanced stuf of each language.

    I use Adobe photoshop for image editing and manipulation but there are other free ones which can do the same basics.

    I will go with PHP as my language with a little bit HTML of my website creation design. This is much easy easy to use and less codes.

    I'd like to see you write any web site without HTML.

    Huh?

    Learn HTML and CSS < learn to code by hand, NOT using a visual editor.
    Then learn PHP to do the magic bits.

    If you're looking for a nice code editor, then try PSPad.

    Hi,
    I've been down this road and have some input that can help.

    First of all, everything ultimately sent to a browser is HTML, so you should learn this first. If you are creating websites that you want to last for awhile and be most mobile friendly then use the XHTML 1.0 Strict version of HTML. You must learn a version of HTML before you learn anything else since it is literally the base (markup) language of the web. w3Schools is a great place to learn this and all of what I mention below: http://www.w3schools.com/xhtml/. Note that it starts with these words "XHTML is a stricter and cleaner version of HTML".

    Next you need to learn Cascading Style Sheets (CSS - http://www.w3schools.com/css/). This technology allows you to be very succinct in your page code, ultimately saving time in page loads, and if you take to the extreme, then you can literally change your websites entire design by changing one CSS file. See http://www.csszengarden.com and click the links on each page. Note that the content of each page is exactly the same, and only the CSS changes. Brilliant.

    If you want to create active pages that are fed from a database then you need to use a language that supports that,. A Windows hosting will support ,asp, .aspx, .cfm (coldfusion), .php and other technologies. Linux hosting is mainly used for .php hosting. What this all means is that you need to learn a different server-based language that interprets your code on the server then sends HTML to the client.

    Lastly, once the page is served to your browser it is possible to manipulate objects on the page based on user actions. You can change colors, swap images, move objects across the page, make form fields visible/invisible based on user selections, etc. This is all done with Javascript. This Javascript code is executed in your browser, and it doesn't have to post back to another Internet server so the time it takes for you to see the result of Javascript code is usually immediate.

    It's more involved than this, but this should give you an idea of where to go from here.

    Absolutely wrong. XHTML only works in modern browsers and not IE so using it is questionable unless you are considering learning XSL for transforming it for use on cellphones but, even then, I'm not sure that would ever be necessary.

    Misleading. XHTML is XML reformulated to act like HTML. The only way it is more strict than HTML is if you serve it as XHTML. In that case, invalid markup fails and only displays an error page. I doubt you know anyone who serves XHTML as XHTML.

    To wrap that up, there is no reason for anyone to bother with XHTML on a web page.

    And Java and Python and Ruby and Lisp and C and every other language in the world including those mentioned above; far more than you'll be able to host on a Windows server.
    What this means is, use a Linux/Unix/BSD server and use any language you want. Use a Windows server and be restricted by what they have.

    Now, I know this is way over the head of a new user as the OP is but let's not send him off to the land of the lost and forgotten.

    Wrong.

    Show me the CODE of ONE site ANYWHERE that runs on .net.

    Browsers CANNOT interpret .net and a host of other languages that are being bandied around in this thread.

    English... no wait, I mean HTML + CSS, with PHP when you need more umph. asp is stuffy and pointless in an old fashioned corporate type of way in my opinion, completely out of tune with the clean simplicity websites deserve.
