from what you've stated it seems that you're on the web dev path... If so JS is your next choice. It will help you make your sites dynamic and you can also use it for backend (Nodejs). However there are some things that you cannot do with JS so I would recommend another language afterwards (Python is a good choice for beginner)

Since you've learned HTML (xhtml?) and CSS, the next natural step is to learn JavaScript. The reasoning being that you learned how to make the structure of a web page, and how to style it. JavaScript would do the logic on the page, and is the only choice you have to do that. Python doesn't offer you anything in that regard unless it's backend related (data queries, for example). After JavaScript, you could learn Python for backend of your websites. But that's up to you, there are a lot of choices for backend programming.

I suppose you should go with JavaScript.. Since you have completed HTML and CSS... also it is interesting(don't know much about Python)

To finish learning the basics of Web skills, learn JavaScript before Python

Just learn one for now, possibly JavaScript to go with html and css and get some proper coding practice before starting another language.

See what you like more...If you are more "back-end" person, Python is the right for you. Otherwise JS... Don't learn all at once if you just startet to learn programming (I made that mistake). Take it bit by bit. When you learn one programming language, next will be much easier... ;-) Pick what you find easier to grasp... Good luck, and don't ever give up.

JavaScript first, it is the natural next step, as it is xomplementing html and css. Then if you install nodejs on your computer you can use JavaScript directly from the command line (instead of python) then, if you wish, you can learn another language to expand your horizon .
