Start with simple "C" or C++ stuff... just do enough of the intro lessons to get a feel for variable usage, threads, etc....

Then do the same with Java.

Once you've gotten a simple grasp as to how those two work, then learn your first useful language... Perl.

Once you have MASTERED perl then use PHP... php (Perl Hypertext Preprocessor) while incredibly useful and adept for webapp development, is based on perl, which is based on c :-)

Funny thing about programming is that once you know one language really well (i know perl.. that's my 'thing') it's sooo easy to pick up another language :-)
