Your internet service provider usually provides a range of suitable scripts when you buy webspace from them. It's certainly the case with the one that I use. And to design and compile the page, Microsoft front Page and Macromedia Dreamweaver make the whole thing fairly simple to setup.
If you've never done it before, it can seem like a major task, so I'd also suggest visiting other folks' websites to check out their response pages until you find one you like. Check out their code by selecting "view" in your browser and then clicking on "source" or "code view" to see how it works.
