    I just learned PHP and I am using it in conjunction with mySql. I just wanted to say that php rules. It is really easy. I run a wrestling roleplay site and the members can actually edit there own pages but I dont have to give them a password to my site. They run there own stable bio and things like that so for those of you who have not yet checked out php take a look into it. Also if using php all a person will see when they click on view and source is just whatever html you used which means sometimes they will see nothing at all but if there is something that I am not seeing that php is bad let me know

      Round here, a lot of us will be using ASP or ASP.NET, which can do everything you described :-D And view source always shows the HTML sent to the client, not the PHP/ASP/Whatever on the server. -- Ian Darling

        But why use PHP when you have ASP.NET? Give one good reason other than slightly cheaper web hosting... In ASP.NET you can use VB, C#, J# or a combination of all these making it more easy to set up a development team. Not to mention the top class resource place (MSDN online) where you can find anything you want with examples etc... Personally, I find the .net platform very developer friendly. :-D:-D |---------------| | theJazzyBrain  | |---------------|

          Many people swear by PHP and MySQL - they work great together and are simple to learn and implement. If the tool does the job efficiently, it belongs in your bag of tricks. Many webhosting services don't support it, though, so don't limit yourself to just this pair; learn some ASP/ASP.Net and SQLServer as well.

            DX, I have to agree with the previous posters, ASP.NET has an extended and easy to use method, You call out the System.Namespace.Class and then you build upon that and you get a really cool app that works well. I have written PHP for practice and made that work also, however, Many hosting companys use 2000 Server with IIS 5.0, and now they seem to be leaning towards 2003 Server with IIS 6.0 which allows integration with Visual Studio.NET. I don't want to bag on PHP but it seems that the going thing is VS.NET, all of the things you described are possible with ASP.NET running atop the .NET Framework. Regards Tony

              There is also the versioning problem. If you code using one version of PHP and deploy to a server that has another version you're in trouble. ASP.NET doesn't have this problem.

                XML support is almost non-existant in PHP. It is listed as experimental. XML isn't an experiment any longer it is a powerful and useful tool the ASP.NET and the .NET Framework take full advantage of.

                  Not only full advantage, but you can treat XML files almost the same way you treat databases... this is very helpfull in some cases and opens new capabilities for developers... |---------------| | theJazzyBrain  | |---------------|

                    Many said about PHP here, so I'll say something about MySQL. Guys, I can't imagine a database that has NO support for stored procedures (which is MySQL). All it gives you is tables and that's all. Phhhhh. Yes, PHP is very powerful scripting language, but has a lack of OOP support. Well yes, you can create kinda "classes" in PHP, but is this ALL you need in OOP? Where is inheritance? Where is protected/private/public members? This is not OOP. Maybe they added it in latest version (5 I guess), I dunno, the last one I worked with was PHP4 Philip Patrick Web-site: www.stpworks.com "Two beer or not two beer?" Shakesbeer
