what you wish to accomplish. From there you select the language(s)
that can help you meet those goals.
As an example say you are having a website report on real time data
collectin stats, you might want to write the data collection portion
in C as it is a faster language and have PHP grab the stats
periodically from the C component and report them, etc.
A great deal in good web sites is not the coding as much as the
planning, then after you have a good plan and idea, you look at how to
get there with the right code.

Nice list of languages; there are more of course. What else what?

Re: Could a website be written in more than one language, if yes, what combination of languages do you recommend?
In our last episode,
<a3763bca-1843-406f-937a-67cd07945096@f2 4g2000prh.googl egroups.com>, the
lovely and talented Erwin Moller broadcast on comp.lang.php:
Anything that can write plain text to STDOUT can be used to make HTMLJava + PHP, Ruby+PHP, Ruby + C++, or what else?
documents because HTML is just plain text. This would include sh and other
shells and a large number of commands --- nanoblogger, for example, is a
blog written in sh with various uniod commands. Perl is an obvious omission
in your list. And Python, I suppose. Lisp --- if you are nuts for
parentheses. Even --- heaven help us --- FORTAN or COBOL. A number of
editors can be called with the name of an initial macro to execute, so you
conceivably use editor macro languages (about as many as there are editors)
to generate a whole website. Since many of these can use system calls (such
as backticks) to get output from the others, you could use whatever your
server's cgi module recognizes to direct the whole process. If you just
want to generate static pages that fit together as a website, there are even
more possibilities.
Okay, some of these possiblities are only theoretical unless you are already
cutting out paper dolls in a room with cushy rubber walls. People who get
out without attendants in white coats will usually want something with a
prebuilt library interface to their favorite database, but some database
clients do sensible things when called in a stream context that would make a
roll-your-own database interface not quite so intimidating as it might
otherwise seem. Likewise many commands, like various calendar commands.
The main problem with unconventional approaches is lack of portability. Even
a monkey can write stuff that works on his own machine. What makes a
programmer is writing stuff that will work on many/most machines. Of
course, many of these languages *should* work the same on any machine with
any OS (with a compiler/interpreter installed), but in varying degrees, that
is not always entirely true.

Ah, I didn't realize IBM had created a CGI interface for RPG :-)
the capacity is there. There's some fun tricks that can be done with
HTML and AS/400 display files to make the same green-screen programs
work prettily as because the whole "accept input, lock terminal, do
stuff, push output unlock terminal,, then you can't do ANYTHING until
you get more input" metaphor of programming ports *really well* to web
applications.
If I had more free time, I'd knock up some prototypes to allow PHP
extensions to be written in RPG just for the sheer wackiness.

generate a HTML page. Most languages don't have nicities like $_GET
and $_POST and so on, but you could write libraries to manually pull
stuff out of the headers and build them into arrays yourself.
Should you? Unless you have a very very very good reason, then no.
Somebody's got to keep the website maintained, why make that person's
job harder than it needs to be?
