Allthough this comment is tainted by my preference:
- Server side language: PHP (is easy to learn if you know C++)
- Database: mysql or postgresql (oracle rocks, but hardly appropriate in
this case..).
Allthough, referring to HTML as a "programming language"... It's Hyper Text
_Markup_ Language. It has nothing to do with programming whatsoever.
PHP and MySQL are part of many, if not most (serious), hosting packages.
