i need to learn how to code a script for a booking form on my website
i would also like to learn to code scripts in gerneral for thngs similar.
anyone have a link to an EASY to follow tutorial or something?

Well, before you rush into web scripting you would need good html skills as they are the basics and without the basics, it would nearly be impossible. I have been coding html close to 9 months now and started scripting a month and a bit ago, when i was ready

As for the script lanaguage i suggest php with mysql for your form

i have html skills
and my forum is created using mysql and php - i used MyBB
its a booking form for my website (in my sig )

I mean advance your skills e.g learn xhtml, css more tags and you didnt code MyBB (unless your surfi in secret ) and those are coding languages you can learn, but at the moment I do not think your up to it, you need more practice, my advice is do not rush your skills

Well it makes sure your pages look fine in most browsers and the coding is done so much neater and it looks alot more professional.

spose ...
but i learn it "as i needed it"

kk, so what at the moment do you know about PHP and Mysql? Just to give me a knowledge of where to point you

ummm

probably not alot because i had the myskl database setup by my host (teaspoondiner.net) and then just installed MyBB
and then edited my theme (yet to be finished) and i havent realy done much to do with the coding apart from adding a few plugins
{following the read me supplyed and copying and pasting}
so yer - not alot about them

XHTML isn't pointless: it's the replacement for HTML. It's more syntactally strict than HTML, which makes rendering it more consistent across browsers and platforms.
