spacebugDear LJ,
The website that my workplace uses has a big crazy backend that serves as our organizational database.
Throughout my tenure here, I've served as tech support/web maintenance, and have been learning more about how it works through osmosis, but I mostly only make cosmetic changes and add the odd static page here and there. I would like to learn more about the nitty gritty of the coding so that I could have more autonomy to make changes and fixes in the database parts. Unfortunately for my macintosh sensibilities, it uses Access and .asp, and while I like problem solving and taught myself enough html and css to made a website, I don't really have any programming or web development experience.
What are good resources for me to learn this stuff, and/or would this be over my head?

I'll ask Perrin for you if you like. He knows all that sort of stuff.
