What programming language do I need to learn to set up a web site where there is a database, such as an online computer store or something like ebay?

Also, what are the 3 most popular programming languages demanded by employers?
 
PHP will probably be the best for use with databases (such as MySQL) they work well together and are relatively easy to pick up, there is ASP which is probably microsoft's closest equivalent of PHP, although PHP is more widely accepted. And perl, this, imo, is more complex than PHP but i don't know ASP so can't comment on that. Also there's java, and loads of others. Ebay is powered by java [i think]. But different situations may mean different langauges are more useful. So it would depend what kind of employment you were after, if it was down a microsoft route then ASP would be the best (which i think is similar to visual basic)
