As for creating pages with dynamic content use whatever language is easy for you to start with. Some languages are particularly well suited to web page creation because they contain built in functions that handle common web-related tasks easily (perl and php are examples of such a language). I cut my teeth using C, which isn't very optimized for the web in terms of coding at all (but does execute very fast). Heck, I even wrote one CGI program that was just a tcsh script.


How about RPG/ILE? (gd&r)

Nothing wrong with RPG, it's just not as easy as some others. I've got CGI programs written in RPG. The most annoying part is having to use a special function to write to standard out (stdout). The good part is that you can use what you already know (and your report may even already be in RPG).
