Metoo, kind of.

ikr! And nobody's looking at my topic to help me!

Html is not a programming language. 

Don't forget Java!

I'm learning Java.

I though you were going to say:
Gar! I need help with Programming Pro!

I really don't see why you would.


On topic: Just use tutorials over and over, that's how I  learn.

thnx for suggestions.Whats the best STARTING point? Something like HTML?

Python is simple to understand. Visual BASIC is also good.

Try Processing, a language that compiles to Java.

Try starting with Python.  I myself suggest Python 3, as it teaches you to use practices that are more used in other programming languages without creating huge numbers of errors.  Then get a good tutorial.  I also suggest getting the book Python for the Absolute Beginner if you can get it (the name might be inaccurate; I can't remember what it's called right now).

I started with JavaScript.

This is what I worked on for bout 10 mins@

Wow.  Wow for two reasons.  One: you didn't first make an alert('Hello World!'); or document.writeln('Hello World!');?  Two: 10 mins?  I typed that just now in a little under 5 minutes.

Oh, and don't be daunted by complex-looking code before you learn the language.  I gave up on Java twice because of the Hello World program* and now that I've gone through with some tutorials, it all seems simple and efficient (of course, it helped that I had some programming experience (like I knew what System.out.println() meant: there's a class called System, and in that a group of stuff called out, and in that a method called println()) despite the long-ness of simple programs).  So just go through with the language and ignore any urges to give up and just keep reading/listening through the lessons, and I guarantee, you will find it simple in the end.



* The Java Hello World program:

class Hello {
    public static void main (String args[]) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}
