Not really programming a flash game, but it's programming.
I was wondering how to mod a game. I have seen mods for many games made by gamers and it would be cool if I knew how to mod efficiently.
Now I know you have to do changes to the script of the game, but how do I know which one to change? How do I recognize what to change? Is it extremely different for every game?
If you have no programming experience, your not going to be able to mod past changing values (such as health or money).

No, not video games. Is there a way to learn through the Internet? Well I'm sure there is, but do you know where I could learn to program?

Not on the internet, that's for sure (buy a book). First, what game are you trying to mod? If you want to mod minecraft, you need to learn Java and be familiar with the engine. If you want to mod games made on the source engine, you need to learn C++ and be a little familiar with the engine. People don't tend to learn how to program just to mod, the tend to learn to program to create stuff, and once they are more advanced, a mod might be one of those things they create.
I've learned everything I can with programming from the internet.
Haven't touched a book...
You need to get your facts straight, Master565.

Well how much do you know?
You downloading pdf files of books and reading them?
Funny.. But no.
Books may be cheap. But tutorials are free.
How much do you know?
Yes books are good, but you can't say tutorials aren't good.
If you find a good one, you can learn a lot from it.
I think it's just a matter of opinion.
I find tutorials much better than books, while others like books more or school.
Fact is that when you've got a good tutorial/book you can learn a lot from both.
I'm not saying they are useless I'm saying that books are generally better. Tutorials are not all encompassing like books are you won't find tutorials on everything about the language like a book will offer.
modding is only for good programmers.
its a MUST that you know the jave / c++ / c# laguage.
as said you have to know and understand the engine.
check out: www.youtube.com/thenewboston for some awesome c++ / java tutorials
well if ya don't like spending (not everthing is free! and what is is usaly expinceve in the long run... i think that is what master and darkroot are saying)
i would sugest going to oreily.com fining a book (they have graet stuff the ones for AS3 adobe will say them selfs is the best) fine the perfect one and then head to amizon and buy that 40$ book for 6$ to 10$ with great quality and little damage and no markings! that is what i do it realy is the best and and saves in the long run!!
