Web development or application programming? If you want to get into web dev, just pick up a book! Just read something like HTML for dummies cover to cover and then CSS and Javascript.
After that, you move onto jQuery, PHP (or Ruby), SQL, etc.
In fact, that's a good list of things to read to get into web dev. HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, SQL, jQuery (in kinda sorta that order).
For CSS I recommend CSS: The Definitive Guide. If you read that at least once through, you'll be ahead of the curve in CSS understanding, no joke. Pretty easy read, too, especially if you have the basics of HTML under your belt (hence the HTML for Dummies recommendation).
Javascript and PHP are a bit different. They are full-fledged programming languages. But don't let that intimidate you! They're super easy to learn, and they have a lot in common in the way you write them out.
If you're better at video than books, check out Lynda.com . They have a video tutorial (very comprehensive) for almost every software you can think of (Adobe Suite, HTML, PHP, Ruby, Javascript even videos for LinkedIn).
And, as always, everything I've listed here is equally available on the high seas wink wink.
Good luck! Oh, and if you want to do application programming, pick up a book on C++ or Java.
I actually recommend a book. I got this on one of the Humble Bundle sales for cheap.

I think it's good to balance practice and theory so I'd recommend making room for reading up/studying.
I used Cascading Style Sheets, The Definitive Guide, but it's pretty old now.
