Re: resources for learning about web development/programming

furthermore, i don't want to learn about programming in general, i was asking about one very specific niche of web development.

A loop works the same no matter what language it's written in. You do need to learn general programming concepts like global/local variables, objects, loops, conditionals, etc.
Someone else might not know language X but they can easily tell what this code does
For (X as Integer=0,x<11,x++)
Print X
next x
Once you know what the code does, changing the syntax to your favorite web programming language is pretty easy you'd just google "php for loop" or "perl for loop". So now we know what a for loop does we can do more real world stuff like change X from an integer to a database query result and print the top 25 salesman last month in an HTML table.
