A graphics program (Photoshop is popular).
A text editor (TextMate is good, as is JEdit, Emacs, Gvim and a number of others)
A collection of browsers to test in.
A web server (Apache is traditional)
A programming language along with its compilers and interpretors and a way for it to communicate with the webserver (I like Perl with CGI::Fast)
... and a lot of knowledge about how to build websites (split between more than a few team members)
