Question: I want to make it clear that I have no prior experience programming, I only have experience in HTML and SQL, everyone seems to be like "Look like the documentation" well yes that sure helps me! *sniff* \*sniff\* is there a book that could be recommendable or a series of webcasts?

Answer: 
Welcome to the wonderful world of node.js!

I myself have also just started learning Node.js and often asked myself "what is express?" "Why use express over node?" etc.

Express is a fantastic web framework so you can develop robust applications with having a lot of the hard stuff done for you :)

I highly recommend reading through his examples to have a feel how it all gets put together: <https://github.com/visionmedia/express/tree/master/examples>

I found this screen cast very helpful in myself learning the basics: <http://vimeo.com/38136668>

Proloser goes through explaining how to start a new express application, how to connect it to mongodb and explains how and why everything works :) He's created it for new noders.

Us noders hang out on irc.freenode.net in the #node.js channel. Come and ask any questions you have and we will help set you on track :)
You have a long way to go, if you only know HTML/CSS.
Take a look at <http://howtonode.org/express-mongodb>

You have to have an advanced understanding of how to code modular JavaScript, JSON,
Databases (especially NoSQL databases ). 

Cheers!
