    What exactly do you want to learn? How to create some type of online calculator?

    codecademy has free courses teaching HTML, CSS and JavaScript. You'll definitely need to know JavaScript anyway, or you could alternatively learn a server-side language like PHP (which would be more work).

    I echo what GavinFlud said above, you'll need at least a client side scripting language. But if you have no background in HTML, it's hard to jump right in. To break it down

    HTML - the web page structure
    CSS - the presentation layer, how the site looks
    JS - the dynamic client-side scripting language, used for things like animation, quick calculations, DOM manipulation (showing/hiding page elements, adding text to pages)

    PHP/Ruby/Java/ASP/Python - server side scripting language, used to access databases, perform more complex calculations, connect to services, authentication

    Start at the top, learn the HTML, and pick up the other bits as you go along. www.w3schools.com is a great place to start learning. http://teamtreehouse.com/ is also a great online resource, albeit a little expensive for what it is; simple regurgitation of content that is freely available through Google.

    Any specific questions or feedback, come back to us ;-)
