Ok so I've been learning PHP and HTML/CSS and I know what I know obviously but I would like to start programming so what would be the best language to learn, by this I mean what do most programmers use?

Javascript, PERL, CURL (useful in php) & ASP (basically microsoft's version of html - I think)
Lew.
Javascript is a nice thing to play with.
There's some money in ASP.NET, and MsSQL development, although the server technologies can be quite costly...
However, c# is possibly one of the best at the moment as it works with ASP.NET and PHP (and more), plus you can build both applications and web applications with it ;)
I'm new to the programming side so I'm not sure.. actually I'm not sure what I'm asking. I want to be able to eventually create programs for windows, I cannot think of a good example but when you say javascript I'm seeing the HTML side, is HTML and PHP also used in programs?
As in applications?
Not really... PHP is a server-side web language really. You can get away with some stuff in Adobe AIR - Adobe AIR Basically allows you to combine HTMl, Javascript and Flash and produce an application with it.
What do you mean "Seeing the HTML side of javascript"?
Not really the html side, I mean like how you combine it. So C# would be a good language to learn? Do you know what programs I'll need, if not I'll google/youtubeQuote:

I'll start on that than. Thanks. +rep
C++ is pretty easy to pick up :) If you know some PHP, it'll probably make things a little easier - the syntax is very similar (since PHP is derived from C and so is C++)
