PHP, Ruby, Python – any server side language.

Wouldn't the answer to this question be a number of languages, if you're talking a full website here then a server side language is only part of the solution?

You would need Markup for the data model then JavaScript or a framework like jQuery for user interactions. A server side language for extracting databased content and doing any complicated interactions with the server and somewhere to store all the data.
