There is a website that is starting to be very popular in term of coding languages, there are a few (HTML, CSS, Python, PHP, JQuery, JavaScript, Ruby). You have exercices and it really is user friendly if you are just getting started.

Have fun!

this site adds end tags itself n "" these as well,thats why when i was practising in note pad,i forgot to add the ending " and it wasnt working lol,then i realised the mistake :)

btw do we continue giving space for each new element that is the opening tags until i reach the closing body tag?

You should get an IDE , for beginners you could go with phpstorm (just because it has the php term in it does not mean it cannot be used for other languages as well (html,css,php,js,perl etc) , and may be later you could use sublime (is extremely flexible , kinda like linux , but you need to configure a lot of stuff to do what you want).

Also make sure you have a drive in you to keep learning , else you'll get bored . Ones you are past the basics of any language , start making your own and don't forget to make use of Github (has a lot of cool repos in their and is really useful) ..

Remember to start commenting your code from the beginning . Use snipplr/github for saving your own snippets or the ones you like , and with time you can have your own good library for doing stuff on the fly .

Use fiddlr for testing your js codes.

are you talking all about web dev or something related to software dev as well
so far i am on html which doesnt needs a compiler
i have learnt the basics of html from codecademy.com except for few exercises left for table div and span thing
IDE php storm are compiler i guess?
whats github snipplr fiddlr
js i guess is java script?
 
In my opinion, start with Java, as a first programming language. It will teaches you programming concepts in general. After that you can go and learn others like: C#/C/C++ which they are very similar to Java.

And don't forget to practice a lot, it's the best way to master any language. And take a look on some source code for examples.

Wish you luck :)
 
A bit off topic, I entered the http://www.codecademy.com/ site and was amazed by it's quality, I actually got lost in it doing lessons for quite some time.
Great site imho for one who wants to learn coding.

On topic, I have started with Java Script and moved to php.. good learning steps this way.

IDE stands for Integrated development environment , which makes your life as developer really easy and does a lot of stuff for you like code completion (intellisense) , allows you to define your own templates and have most general templates built into it , so for example you want to make a new html page , all you need to do is select "new html doc' from the menu and all the essential html tags will already be their in your page like opening and closing html tags , head tag etc..

IDE just makes development faster ...
 
I recently started coding macros in Excel for my job. With the help of the macro recorder / YouTube and various other websites. Makes everything MUCH MUCH MUCH faster and easier.
I've made processes which would usually take 30 minutes manually, into a 3 minute automatic process.

Well, you need to download jdk: Java Development Kit. This includes all what you need to code Java, also it contain JRE: Java Run Environment, if you want to run any program coded in Java then you need to have only JRE and not the whole kit jdk.

All what you need now, is to go and download the latest version from jdk: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

And make sure to copy the path of the java/bin into your system path.

Then try NetBeans and tell me if something was wrong!
 
which language is for FLASH BTW? or is it just known as FLASH,i think java can also work for that?

can any1 help me decide if i should go for front end or back end
i am thinking about backend though why not both? :D
so for that purpose html/css then php,mysql n maybe even python n anything else?
Even in website development, it depends on what you wanna be, A front end developer (templates) or a back end developer (scripts). Start with javascript, jquery next if your goal is front end, or php, python for the other one.
