Most places I visit use web-based applications more and more often. And, in such places, JavaScript developers seem to be in short supply.

thank you so much for your help. What would you suggest as a marketable language for me to learn?

http://codeacademy.com has free classes for much of the basics in
several languages. They just added Python. Look to see if that fits
your learning goals.

> I was wondering..... how do you find the free kindle books and I was hoping to find a book that would teach programming from the ground up with exercises and stuff like that. Free is about all I can afford with two kids and being on disability and all the crap that is going on in my life! WHat is a good language to start learning? I remember that a friend of mine who went to Devry in 91 the first language he learned was Pascal. Is that a good language to start with or should I rather start with something more useful? Like maybe Java or Javascript or would you recommend something else? This is going to be completely a home study thing. I do have a Python book for python2.1 by Deitel, Liperi, and Weidermann (copywrite 02). I think I will work out of that unless you think it is too old. Please don't ask what I want to do with whatever I learn because right now I don't know what the possibilities of learning a language (be it Python, DHTML, or
whatever). You know what, I also
have a DHTML book (<c>1997) anda java book (<c> 96) that are really old. Do you think I should use them? Yeah, I'm thinking HTML and Java are more practical. I can offer to program things for people. What do you think I should do?
