Whats the easiest CGI language to learn?
And where can I go to learn it for free?I still think PERL is the easiest to learn, but PHP doesn't look too hard either. Do a search for tutorials for the scripting langauge that interests you and you will find many online tutorials. For scripting I recommend you get some printed reference material. Books are easier to read and generally cover more material than online sources.
Here's a search result on google for "PERL Tutorial" <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.google.com/search?q=PERL+tutorial">http://www.google.com/search?q=PERL+tutorial</a><!-- m -->

KevinTry PHP I find it much easier, I am still learning it as we speak, I started out trying perl, Perl I feel has a learning curve, I personally found php is much easier to pick up. one great resource book on PHP is published peach pit press, easy to read and fallow. PHP is my call.
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.peachpit.com/books/catalog/72787.htmli">http://www.peachpit.com/books/catalog/72787.htmli</a><!-- m --> tried perl for a little bit, but heard about php. i am still learning but it seems much easier. but from the book i read and the references they make, php and perl seem to be very close code wise. i also agree that you may want to use a printed book, staring at computer screen to long hurts and isnt as effective in the learning sense.
