I am looking to build a website for my online business. What programming language do you think would be the best for building a website fast. Php/MySQL, ASP.NET, JSP, etc. So many choices, what is the best?

This depends on what technology is available on your server, and what flexibility you need. And of course, what budget you might have available for development tools. You might want to explore these. All have free trial versions.
1) JBoss or Tomcat on the server, along with a database server (MySQL). Borland JBuilder as the IDE. My second and third choices would be Netbeans or Eclipse, but Enterprise Edition JBuilder just beats out the rest. Stuff like object modeling, unit testing, and batch processing built-in, using standard Java tools like JUnit and Ant.
2) Apache/MySQL/PHP, using ActiveState Komodo as the development platform. Or possibly Eclipse with the PHPEclipse addon module, as a low-cost solution.
3) ColdFusion as the application server, with MacroMedia/Adobe Flash Professional as the development platform. The professional version because it has a component suite for database development. ColdFusion because it has the best support, being part of the same product suite. Though you COULD write your own server-side interface in either Java or PHP.

i have yet to read a book. I learned/still learning everything from the internet. Basic web site dev is easy css etc. database development is more of a planning thing. What i mean is you have to envision how the site will run, store data etc and then develop your db from that. Just watch out for redundant information in your database and i would not suggest you to store calculated results from two db fields/tables.

IMO this depends on both server and IDE you have.
If you have a good IDE (I prefer zend studio), PHP is great with a large library and examples around the net.
If you have visual studio .net, and familiar with a .NET language (say c#/vb.net/j# etc) go with ASP.NET. Of course, you'll need a windows server.

Use Delphi 8 with ms sql.
Real easy and fast.
Delphi is considered one of the best RAD application in the market and it is base compiler is real great.

The best language is the one in which you are most productive.

HO? None of them! ;o)
Use a program application instead. Link below to just
such a program. There are many more if you search
hard enough, and/or are prepared to pay good
money!
HTH.
PS A while back, very usable versions of 4D were being given away on cover disks...
