How to Create Online Questionnaires?

I have to create a couple, maybe several, questionnaires on a site. I've never done this before and I wondered if anyone who has could share their experience. Or perhaps someone knows of some resources I could check out.

The two questionnaires I have contain 60 questions each with four choices for answers: never, sometimes, often, almost always. Each of these four responses needs to be assigned a value (1,2,3,4) and a total needs to be derived and presented to the person completing the questionnaire.

I guess this is beyond HTML and CSS. Sounds like Javascript or ActionScript.

Thoughts and suggestions welcome.

Javascript is a client-side language. It's envelope begins and ends in the browser. You are going to want to email, store, and possibly draw statistics from this questionnaire, meaning you will have to store the information somewhere on a server. For that you are going to need a server-side language, such as perl, php, asp, cold fusion.
