i would start with a google search for HTML Tutorials
learn HTML - you dont need any software for that - you can use notepad

Then lean about CSS - cascading style Sheets - again loads of tutorials on the web from a google search

There are loads of web editors out there
Frontpage
Dreamweaver

a free editor
1st Page 2000

as i say a google search will bring back hundreds

But heres a starting point

http://www.w3schools.com/html/

Hello,

I am a web application developer, and some really good free code editors to use are:
- NotePad2: http://www.download.com/Notepad2/300...ml?tag=lst-0-1
- NotePad++: http://www.download.com/Notepad-/300...ml?tag=lst-0-4

Some other programs that you may need will be a FTP Client, I recommend FileZilla: http://www.download.com/FileZilla/30...ml?tag=lst-0-1

Some good places to start will be www.w3schools.com. Have fun and enjoy!

I found this site fantastic as a 'tutorial' for html.. Very easy to follow. Start at Chapter 1 and FOLLOW all the instructions. You will learn easily and within a day or 2 how to write your own 'code'!!! -- http://www.htmltutorials.ca/ --
Start at the 'Introduction' then go through the lessons from 1-21 in order, and complete the 'exercises' on each lesson.
With "Notepad++" (free) and "Fresh FTP" (free) and "Firefox" (free) with the 'Web Developer Toolbar' (free) you will soon be on your way.

Have fun and enjoy.
