Are there any de facto standard/good intro to web programming books out there? I can do your run of the mill boring HTML static page stuff, but I really need to learn how to make dynamic pages. Any help?
 

html != programming

if you're totally new to programming, learn the basic logics with BASIC or something old

with web programming, your primary choices are php, asp/.net, coldfusion
the zend online classes are good

what do you mean by dynamic?

there is dynamic HTML, essentially using script to change the html on a page as a user is browsing it.

or there is server side scripting like ASP, PHP, Perl which allow users to interact with the site by requesting and submitting information from your servers or databases.

I'd answer your question, but I see you're a Duke Blue Devil.

I'd suggest starting off with learning SQL, javascript and php.

you can get most of the basics from the web. And its free.

If you are going to look for books, it will really depend on your personality. I perfer code heavy books, but my friends perfer theory heavy books. Its all in how you learn.
