I've been doing some research about the PHP vs ASP.NET debate, because I need to justify the use of PHP in my graduation work. In my University, people in charge of approving the graduation works advocate Microsoft's technologies. They don't believe in the free software movement or the open source movement. Some guys tried to develop a system using PHP and those people made them change to ASP.NET. They say because "It's the future". According to them it's where the money is. Well, I only have one year using PHP, but I'll try to fight. I've read a lot of opinions that have been very useful to me. I collected a lot of those opinions and printed to show them to the authorities, but they said that I needed "formal" basis (books, scientific journals, etc.) to justify the use of PHP. They said that they'd only allow "BIG COMMERCIAL, IMPARTIAL, RECOGNIZED WEBSITES" opinions and articles. I pretend to use this comparison found in the Microsoft MSDN website: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnaspp/ html/phpvsaspnet.asp Can you give me some pointers (websites, names, etc) where I could find this kind of "formal comparison" about both technologies? I've been looking for some book that covers this issue. I've also been looking for some magazine article that I could use. I'd appreciate any kind of help. Thanks.
