If you want to be able to touch the ground while you are on the seat you want a bike that uses flat foot technology. Otherwise you need to hop of the seat when you stop. You need to go to a bike shop and get fitted for the proper size.

The most important thing is fit. You know this when your leg is just slightly bent at the 6 o'clock down-stroke. You don't need to touch the ground with both feet. If you don't follow the above, you can damage your knees or hips. Frame size depends on your inseam.
