I've got a blog up simply using html and css. what should i learn next, i want to add a comment feature stuff like that. my next project is going to be a forum wat languages are used to create forums?

PHP / ASP or ASP.NET / JSP with extensive use of databases

XHTMl , Javascript , AJAX, Flash, Serverside languages

I'd advise learning PHP and MySQL and reading up on search engine marketing and search engine optimization.

I'd also suggest using established open-source applications (Wordpress for blogs, PHPBB for bulletin boards, for example) -- you can "look under the hood" of them to learn more about programming, but you don't have to reinvent the wheel and build applications from the ground up.

Good luck!

Best,
