I'm now wrestling with whether to develop new projects in PHP or Java.
PHP is obviously the practical choice right now. The only thing that
bothers me is whether there are "hooks" or trends toward using PHP with
something other than a HTML browser. Where platforms like Java and
REBOL have an edge is that they also have their own GUI. There are many
times when browsers don't behave the way we would like. What happens
when people demand more user interface that a browser can provide? Will
XML and Gecko save the day, or will Java/Swing edge ahead?
