HTML coding for a roleplay Forum?

Posted at: 2014-12-18 
You wouldn't use html to code anything. HTML is going to determine page structure. It's just a language to determine layout. CSS determines the styles of those html elements. Can use it to fine tune the layout.

JavaScript will handle any client side stuff like if you click a button JavaScript could determine what happens. JavaScript can work with CSS and HTML to do a lot of stuff. It is also going to allow you to work with your server side language.

The server side language I use is Visual Basic. It's pretty simple. That is how I communicate with the database and manipulate the data. Most of my work is using JavaScript.

HTML would be the language for coding the web page it self, but the other functions, such as the random code generator and tracking inventory are done using a database and some scripting language like C# or PHP.

I need to know if there is a way to make a random number generator using html?

Also I want to use HTML coding to create a sort of "tracking" program that can keep track of peoples items and the quantity of the items they have in their inventory. and I'd like it so that only admins can edit the inventories, and inventory edits by players have to be approved first. I'm not sure whats possible using html or what exactly it is I'm talking about, can someone point me in the right direction?
