thenewboston.org is a really good tutorial website. I like the Head Start HTML & CSS book, then the O'Reilly book, PHP,mySQL,JavaScript, and CSS (all in one book)

Here is the link to the book. I am on chapter 4 and so far it is pretty good. They explain everything like you have never touch it before, which is good.

http://www.amazon.com/Learning-MySQL-JavaScript-Step---Step/dp/1449319262/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1343577123&sr=8-2&keywords=learning+php%2C+MySql%2C+and+JavaScript

Oh, and here is the one to the Head First HTML & CSS one
http://www.amazon.com/Head-First-HTML-Elisabeth-Robson/dp/0596159900

If you read both of these books, you will be well prepared to tackle web development projects. Then, when you want to learn more about a programming language (Like JavaScript) you can either buy the JavaScript book from O'Reilly, or watch the more advanced TheNewBoston tutorial videos.

Good luck!

aah well if you primarily like webpage designing and management and sorts then you can start with HTML/CSS and move up to php,sql and javascript. I've seen many job openings for people efficient with the above.
Now if you want to go to the path of making apps and program then you can choose C++/Java/Python+swift(or swift alone if iOS developer is your focal point) which is very lucrative.
Personally I hated C++ and I am learning Java. I use the course book "Intro to Java Programming" by Daniel Liang which comes with a website that lets you preview examples which really helps. I've heard that python codes are easier to begin with but Java has the market. This article might help you decide what to go with. Also I have found learning html/css is very useful as many blogs and such allows you executive control over design with html/css. I am learning php and sql with the help of this book and this one which is really top notch. They require you to have prior knowledge on HTML and CSS so I'd recommend you to use codecademy to kickstart it all. They have HTML/CSS, JavaScript, python among others. I am really fond of their beautiful UI and learning process which helps a lot. At the end of the course they have where you have to build a project to complete the course which is really cool and exciting imo.
Good luck in your journey and get the 8.1, it's not bad as people make it out to be, it's kind of like OS X but windows people adore the start functionality and reporters who use mac join on the bandwagon. Also windows 7 requires cost to upgrade to 8.1 and possibly to 10 whereas 10 will most probably be free for 8.1 users. I adore the multi tasking functionality on the 8.1 and prefer it to 7.

Buy some books.

Setup your own web server and practice making sites. For SQL, look for a book which teaches SQL, then install MySQL, create a database, and practice creating tables, populating them, and doing queries.

Eu sunt în general împotriva tutorialelor, cel puţin pe partea de programare. E greu de urmărit şi nu prea are de-a face cu procesul de învăţare ci mai degrabă cu cel de înmagazinare a unor cunoştinţe.
Cel mai bine ar fi la început să începi să citeşti o carte/un articol despre concepte ale programării în general pentru ca apoi să te apuci de sintaxa unui anume limbaj. Plus că îţi trebuie determinare şi multă răbdare.

Odată ce ai prins basicul limbajului, recomandarea mea ar fi să te implici într-un proiect la care poţi contribui cu cod. Codul ăsta va suferi o grămadă de transformări pentru ca la final să nu mai semene deloc cu cel de la început. Ştiu, sună descurajator dar ăsta e procesul natural prin care îţi îmbunătăţeşti skillurile.

Dacă vrei neapărat tutorial video, singura mea recomandarea ar fi PHP with MySQL Essential Training
with Kevin Skoglund
, însă repet: nu mi se pare cea mai fericită metodă de a învăţa programare. Cele mai sfinte lucruri în PHP sunt: cărţile, practica şi http://www.php.net/manual/en/index.php!

Dintre cărţi ţi-aş recomanda:
