I'd suggest using PHP (http://www.php.net). It's really easy to start with
and works like a charm here. And least, but not least, it is free (as in
speech).
It works by inserting commands directly into the HTML code, á la:
[...]
This is some html code.<br>
And this: <? print ($a + $b); ?> is something generated dynamically with
PHP.<br>
[...]
Of course, for e-commerce you would do some database queries (and the
like) in the "<? ... ?>"-part(s).
