Direstion Needed.

Hey Traj.

A good place to start is HTML it's fun, easy to learn, and you can do lot's
of things with it. Once you learn that I'd suggest moving to JavaScript
and ColdFusion. Javascript is kind of like an extension of HTML but you'll
learn the basics of programming with it and can do much more with JavaScript
that HTML. Cold Fusion is also easy to learn and you can make dynamic web
sites that are tied into Databases. It's a similar language to ASP,JSP,
and PHP these are all hot today and by learning ColdFusion it'll be easier
to move onto these others. Don't worry about Java and MYSql just yet. The
languages I listed should keep you busy for at least a year of good study
then you'll know what direction you'd like to head in.

Books for learning I suggest.

Cold Fusion Application development by the best author Ben Forta.
JavaScript goodies by joe burns makes javascript easy to learn. www.htmlgoodies.com
is his website.

Good luck in you quest "remeber learn 1 language at a time and don't worry
about all the endless languages and technologies there are out there just
master your chosen few and you'll get a good job one day.
