No, that's plenty of info. Aarat, I'm afraid that your question's answer doesn't come as easy as you might think. I don't want to say that web programming with databases is not easy, it is. But you have to learn the simple basics on your own first or you'll just be spinning your wheels here.

First and foremost, you will want to get familiar with Active Server Pages (ASP). This technology will give you all of the tools you need to have a database driven web site. Even if it is just a few pages. Now, ASP is not a language, it is a solution developed for Microsoft and designed to be used on NT servers. There's no software to buy, your NT server will already parse ASP written code.

I would suggest to you to get a beginners book on ASP. A good one that I started with is Mastering Active Server Pages (ASP) by Russel Jones.

Secondly, I would recommend that you spend some time reading threads and posting questions on this forum.

You'll get a much better response there than you will here on ASP related questions.

Hope this helps.

What about PHP? I just started learning of all the great (and easy) things you can do with databases and PHP!
