I want to design an interactive website (with checkboxes, radiobuttons etc.) which I would later link up with a MySQL database. But I don’t know any HTML. Is there any (free) software that enables me to design my website using drag-and-drop of controls and generates the HTML automatically? Which is the best software in your opinion?
There are some good web applications out there such as Weebly and Webs, but if you really want downloadable software, I would suggest Nvu.
In my opinion, Dreamweaver is the best editor for newbies, it is very intuitive, kind of like using Microsoft Word, and it already contains some interactive scripts, for example for integrating a music player on your website. However, to make the website interact with a database, or to store data in any way, you need more than just HTML, you will likely have to learn about PHP or a similar server-side programming language.

Is there any kind of decent program for html/css that lets you build a website visually? I'm thinking something more along the lines of adobe illustrator or google docs, that lets you put content onto a page and drag things to where you need them to be, but spits out html code when you're done. Something like google web designer but more flushed out and functional, as it's still in beta and has a long way to go. Also, what are these kinds of programs called? (originally thought they where WYSIWYGs )
Try wordpress, easiest way to achieve what you've said, then you can drag and drop and design the website like you said. WYSIWYG changes textarea to a text editor, Tinymce is one of them, not what you want. What you want is called Content Management System(CMS), wordpress is one of them, you can see a list of CMSs in the article.
A far more economical drag-and-drop HTML builder tool is Bootstrap Studio.
This is naturally linked to the Bootstrap library and jQuery. But you can just use it to get a flavour of what you want to design.
Then write your own html/css/js code for the final site.
In fact you can use Bootstrap Studio to build a non-Bootstrap site and make use of its features like designing for different device screen widths.

I'm looking for a way to program with HTML and CSS and have it render in the form of a Windows application.
What is the best way to do this, so I don't have to get my hands too dirty using C++?
EDIT: I see seamonkey is very confused about what im asking, so ill explain. I want to program in HTML/CSS and use that program as an offline application instead of a webpage. Ive heard useful tips like including IE9's html renderer in my program and also using HTA files or even using Chrome apps. Im still open to other suggestions.
If you are using Visual Studio, you (in essesnce) embed the Internet Explorer viewer into your application. I have done it before and it is pretty easy. To do that, just create an MFC application then use the MFC WebBrowser Control
Here is an article on how to do that.

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'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.

I am looking for an open source social bookmarking site CMS so I can build a site like delicious with it for my organization. This will be deployed in the internal LAN.
Do you have any recommendations?
SemanticScuttle is the best I've found: http://sourceforge.net/projects/semanticscuttle/
i could suggest a site like www.rubysignal.com.
it works with django web framework, (rel 0.96).
The sources are on https://github.com/sebadima/bookmarks, but remember that it's just a alpha project.
Not sure of the tech you are using, but I've used netlicious to use delicious itself as a CMS and then consume the bookmarks, descriptions etc on another website through the API. If that makes sense.
Basically set up a delicious account and bookmark, tag and fill in the descriptions as you would normally. And then hook in the neticious API into your own site - delicious stores everything and all you fundamentally have to do is consume an API.
