It depends of what language you want to target.
ASP.net, PHP, ColdFusion (a bit outdated, but he, you never know), JSP, Ruby, Python....
Take your pick.

If you know a bit of C, PHP would probably quickest to get to grips with, because the syntax is pretty much based on a C/C++ syntax

Or ASP.NET with C# as the base language

I second that, with a small advantage to PHP, as it's available on nearly 99% of the shared hosts you can found.

ASP.net requires a windows server, and this might reduce the choice you have. But every "major" hoster proposes both windows/ASP.net and linux/PHP plans.
I'm pointing that out only if you already have an host, or have one imposed to you

There is a php / mysql for dummies book. If you go through it and do all the examples you will have a good start. Be aware that it doesn't necessarily teach "proper" coding, but its a starting place and you should be able to make it through it in a couple of weeks.
