It sounds like you''ve already got the basic''s of game programming down. Unfortunatly Java Script & HTML are not good at state of the art 3D games. If this is what you want to do then first order Visual C++ from www.microsoft.com (Right now it comes with a $50.00 rebate.) you don''t need to buy any extra books with it. The help files it comes with will be plenty to get yourself started. Once your familar with creating Windows (not console) applications make the decision to either support a particular card (nVida, 3dfx etc..) and download the SDK''s and demos available from their websites or go to www.opengl.org and start writing for OpenGL. Once you master a specific API then go ahead and download the DirectX 7.0 SDK from microsoft.com and learn that. With your current knowledge and a years worth of daily dedication you should be producing killer demos and "mini" games in no time.

Good luck it''s hard work but your having so much fun you never really notice!
