which is the best scripting language

[hoovhearted]

Different scriping languages are useful for many different things, although if you are looking out to start learning your first language, then depending what kind of background you have I could offer a few suggestions.

Personally I have been loving ASP.NET lately especially for the database driven project I am currently working on. This is particularly good if you have experience in any .NET variations of languages like VB, C++ or C#.

JavaScript may be the easiest place to start as much of the syntax is pretty straight forward and it can either be placed in block script segments in your HTML code, or can even be placed directly in to an HTML statement.

Most people swear by PHP, although I havn't gotten too in to it myself, it does seem to be extremely powerful and ridiculously useful if you can master it.

I thing that It`s hard to define who is the best script language.

HTML is easy to learn. JavaScript can make you web pages more flexible. So If you are beginer you firstly learn the besics of this languages.

The Server Side Langugas ("Server-side refers to operations that are performed by the server in a client-server relationship in computer networking.") give you the power to do you work proffesinaly.

Every Languege is good.
PHP is good for begeners. It`s easy to learn and is one of the most popular server side langiges.

For more powerfull web sites you should use ASP.NET or JSP

The best is a combination of whatever you are comfortable with, that way your code keeps clean. Also, different browsers render differently, so there's that to contend with.

btw- have you checked out jQuery?
