PHP and Python are good choices.  Perl has a syntax that I do not
like....  You should be able to pick up PHP in no time.  The first web
page I wrote in PHP consisted of about 1200 lines of code and took me
about two weeks to get working.  It had a MySQL backend and was an
"operator checklist" for the LIGO observatory.  It has been under
refinement ever since as I learn more....  But it was easy to at least
get it working  with no previous knowledge of PHP or CGI.
