Best options available for developing a dynamic website?
I want to start developing dynamic websites. I am reasonably good in programming and can build professional desktop applications using Java.
However, I know practically nothing about website development. I don’t know where to start out. I particularly want to know which technology/framework/language to use to develop a website.
Please let me know what are the best options available for developing a website in respect to my query in the preceding paragraph.
I’d suggest PHP (not all servers handle ASP). You’ll need HTML, Javascript (similar syntax to Java, but a totally different language), CSS and PHP. To make it a nicer experience for the user, use AJAX. (You could do it in Java servlets, but not everyone has Java installed. Anyone using a web browser has HTML and Javascript “installed”.)
You’ll also have to learn how a website works (the client/server interaction) and the document object model.
There are tutorials for all of this all over the web. (W3Schools is a great reference site, but there are better tutorials for someone still at the starting line. Try http://www.tizag.com/beginnerT/ )
