Re: Java, PHP or what?

I've been using PHP-JavaScript with good results, but I don't have a big database. I think you have to keep in mind who are your clients. You can have dbgrids and data access with Java, though the download time is greater. JavaScript allow you simulate dbgrids using tables, but all the data you have to deal must be on the client side. If your clients are not customers who come to buy products and will be bored with a long download time, you can choose Java, else I think you should decide for PHP-JavaScript-DHTML .
