A server-side language: PHP being quite common for learning and is fairly widespread. You could use anything though Node.js, Python, Ruby on Rails(probably not the best choice for a game like this), Java, C# etc.
HTML/CSS/Javascript for frontend design.
You'd also want to learn about relational databases(MySQL being a common first choice but pgsql, and other options exist) games like this will be fairly intensive with the database so understand how to effectively setup the database and the relations is important.
I was a developer for a browser-based MMORPG so if you have any particular questions I can probably help.
