IF you have your heart set on Ruby on Rails, your right. HTML/CSS/ and a little Javascript wouldn't hurt. If you have the resources to travel to America...Code Academy in Chicago would be exactly what you are looking for. (11 week training geared towards complete beginners). If you don't, you could slowly work through Treehouse/think vitamin. I have used their tutorials and would recommend them to beginners. Realistically, Ruby on rails will take much longer than most people think initially. Most people guess 4-8 weeks (on a 40 hr week), it's more like 6 months. Don't give up. Good luck.
