Website theory

dleanjeanz (105)
I've learned some language like: html, javascript, php,...
But I dunno what do websites include (would you mind listing them?) and what are they? I only know server-side, client-side but I dunno what are they, too. And which language handles them?
So teach me, please. Thanks in advance

I do not get your question.
But if you mean what languages can be used by websites than:
You can use HTML javascript and php with making websites.

And Python, Ruby, Java, C++, C, Perl, ASP, AJAX, etc.... The list goes on for awhile. There's lots of aspects to web development, and ample languages to fill each aspect. It's a cluttered mess.

Er... I just want to know what is server-side and client-side.

Server side = Executes on server
Client side = Executes on client

client:
for example: your browser (written in c,cpp or whatever). Browser send:
1

GET /index.html HTTP/1.1
Host: www.example.com

to specified address (like www.example.com).

server:
for example written in c++ interpret this recieved message and send response like this:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
