Text based browser game
 
Hi there, I'm new to this site, but i'm here because I know some HTML and some Javascript (pretty basic stuff i know) and I am aiming to eventually create my own text based browser game (possibly similar to Facebook's My Heroes Ability or better). I know I probably need to learn more and it may take me a very long time to achieve, but does anyone have any advice on what I should do to get started or do before beginning this ambitious (and somewhat naive) mission? Possibly specific software required? (told you i'm clueless :-/)
I'd be thankful for any suggestions you may have to offer :P

I would say better you could get knowledge about server-side languages like PHP, Perl, ASP.Net, Ruby/Rails, Python/Django, etc. if you want to build a browser-based game. I feel E Book i bought might help you.

None of the above are required for a basic text based browser game, js and html are enough
