Not even sure of the language!!

[larky_starz]

I would like to start a website that has user sign-ups and log in with passwords & email verifications all automated. I'm not sure even where to begin learning how to do this?

If anyone can offer some advice, I would really appreciate it. (I don't need codes and such, just what language to use, programs etc)

Thanks

Start off with getting some php/mysql hosting.

Then goto google and type in: PHP/Mysql beginners tutorials

And read through them....

After that,

Start your coding....


And if you have problems, post your problems here.

I only recomend php because its probably the easiest to learn, and has the biggest tutorial database online. Its a great scripting language.

I use:

http://crimsoneditor.com for my editing program. But notepad works too.

Use PHP and a mySQL database - just like Axilant suggested.

as mentiioned above php/mysql is the language to go with even tho ASP is good too but kind of difficult for newbies so its hip hip horray for PHP/ MySQL :D

If you're new, here are a few places to look:

• w3Schools PHP Tutorials
• The Official PHP Tutorial - php.net
• Tizag PHP Tutorial (Recommended)

...
and for the more advanced

• Zend PHP Tutorials
• DevShed PHP
• WebMonkey PHP/MySQL Tutorial

Hope that helps

Also, a note to help: Search the threads within the Programming Section because there are many things that will help you out here. Also, looking at other programmer's code is useful in learning techniques and programming strategy.
