Workshop in web-programming. Where to begin? And where did you start?

Question

PHP

I am 16, and I know the basics of css and html, I tried php, but I didn’t understand anything from the book (I don’t remember the name and author, it was a year ago).
So, I know the theory, but zero in practice - advise literature, well, or self-study methods without books.
And is it worth it to "hollow" php again, or start with ruby ​​(links are only a plus)

Answer 1

I would advise you to start with the C# programming language and then ASP.NET ( www.asp.net ) -Depending on what tasks you want to solve... If not large business card sites, etc., then of course PHP

Answer 2

Just do not watch video tutorials from Evgeny Popov!

Answer 3

learn better ruby

Answer 4

I think that before starting to learn another language (ruby) it was extremely useful to deepen my knowledge in php. Well and to study sql.
I myself started by writing a small web portal (authorization, user's personal page, chat, forum, gallery, articles with comments).
