Any language is good enough for achieving this. There are dozens upon dozens of finished wikis in many many languages. Visit vikipedia List of wiki software and pick a wiki that has the features you want, that is written in a programming language you're familiar with, and then enhance/improve/use as you see fit	[reply]

Learn how HTML, HTTP etc work, if you haven't already. (In particular, HTML forms) Figure out how your favourite library/framework abstracts it Ask the user for a page name. If the page does not exist, give him a blank text box to edit When the user submits, save the web page onto the server (into a file or a database) If the user wishes to edit an already-existing page, give him a text box with the page's content pre-filled Consider storing the previous revision(s) of the page when the user submits an edit Think about enhancing the syntax with a markup language such as Textile or Markdown. And that's about it.	[reply]
