I've been wanting to make a website but I wanted to code it myself without using one of those website makers. Are there any ways of doing this? I would also like to publish it as well. Thanks.
1.Write your code and save it.
2.Purchase a domain and host it with ehost or something like that.
3.Upload your file. That's it.
[ehost provide hosting with free domain]
This is not technically an appropriate question for SO. However, you need to learn the basics of HTML. Start at W3 Schools. http://www.w3schools.com
You mentioned that you already know HTML. If you are just making static content, that will suffice. I strongly recommend learning CSS. While it is not technically necessary, it will make your life much easier. When you want to publish it, you will have to pay for a domain and a hosting service. Google Domains can help you with this.

(I'm new to all this... instead of closing my question, it would help if I could have an idea of what needs to be done) (please excuse if I'm not asking the proper question for what I'm trying to achieve, new to code)
New to coding: web development Learning HTML, CSS and then JS.
I see websites where data is automatically updated. How is this achieved?
I would like to create a website that will display economic data but not have to manually input the data. How would I incorporate code to automatically do this for me?
Would I use a websites API?
Example of the type of information I would like to display on my own website: https://www.marketwatch.com/economy-politics/calendar
Automatically updated data on a website can be achieved by using an API call. You make a request to an API that has the data and then render the data on your HTML page.
The process requires a good understanding of modern JS concepts.
Search for an API that offers the service you need and read the documentation to understand how to use it.
Let me know if there' anything else.

This is a broad question, but I'll try to provide some help to get you started.
If you are referring to how to send an email from a website in general, you need to use a script to do so. How you do this is highly dependent on how you are hosting your website. If you are using Node.js, you could take a look at Nodemailer. You will have to do a bit of research with respect to what you are using to host your website.
You would also need some code to generate a link for each users email.
If you are rereferring on how to style email, you can do this with standard HTML and CSS. As far as I know, there is unfortunately no good method to insert HTML source code using Gmail.

I am currently building an HTML web site and i need the make it multilingual ...
so i was asking what are the best solutions?
Should I use sub domains http://en.mysite.com, or make it simple, e.g.:
mysite.com/en/index.htm -
mysite.com/fr/index.htm
Should I translate everything for all language or are there tools to auto translate?
Finally, how can I make the website detect the users location and redirect him to his language?
Generally, I would say to have higher rank in search engines it might be better to avoid subdomains.
Since you only have HTML, the redirection solutions are not good enough to consider them. For instance if someone decide to visit English version from Paris, to avoid annoying redirections you might need to keep track of this choice by cookies.
Instead of redirection you can still suggest a language for them (according to their location). It's possible by google loader: https://developers.google.com/loader/
You could use /your/path?lang=en.
To detect the users language, see: https://stackoverflow.com/a/8199791/1500022

I know the question was asked before but I'm still not sure.
I'm comfortable with php, mysql, jquery, html, css, etc.
Recently someone propose a collaboration where I help him to build a website where people search for jobs(in my country). He wants the website to offer possibility for uploading video. He doesn't really know but he want the site to be build on a platform, because he says its faster.
What do you think?
I can do it from scratch, but is he right? What do you suggest?
Also the part with the video I'm not really sure in what direction to go? What to use when you want to give a user possibility to upload a video(besides something like youtube)?
Thank you!
PHPmotion Media Sharing CMS aka PHPmotion is one of the most famous scripts to create a "youtube clone" site and it's free.
There are other options, check The Top 5 Free YouTube Clone Scripts article, it might help you choose the best one for you.
The fastest way is the way you feel most comfortable with.
Uploading video is not something as easy as it looks. There are a lot of things beyond the "upload". For example, video files are big. So you have to have a huge distributed storage system to store them. That alone would be quite a big task if you don't already have a "platform" that already does it for you.
So my suggestion is, talk him out of the video feature, then do the rest with your own way. : )

I'm developing a site and I want it to have a very simple blog page. What are the best options to add in a blog to the site? blogger/wordpress seem like overkill, as I just want to be able to do simple posts and allow people to comment, are there any recommened blog scripts that I could use? I don't mind it being commercial as long as there's no branding on it. The site is being developed in Xhtml, Css, Jquery, Php, mysql.
thanks for any help.
Personally I would use Wordpress, I know it may seem to have over-bloat for your needs, but you never know when your needs change/expand so having a good base system for this is a good place to be.
You can strip out and hide a lot of Wordpress functionality through simple extensions if you wish the UI to be more simple. It's not the worlds #1 blogging software for no reason ;)
A great alternative to wordpress is b2evo. Its free, open source and easy to set up and use.
