RE: [PHP] PHP vs. ColdFusion

I don't think they were dis'ing the technology or the language itself, only the lack on consistency across the language. PHP is my primary language (second only to English) and although the article clearly favors CFML and JSP it did a fair job of explaining the pros and cons of each language - the pros of PHP being the speed at which it can display pages - vs. the ease of BASIC coding utilizing CFML. Going by the information handed out by Ziff-Davis, I would use CFML for template sites and PHP for custom sites. That's my opinion, I welcome yours (grin)! __________________________________ Lorenzo Curtis Website/Database Developer Prexar - Internet and Beyond lorenzo.curtis@prexar.com (207) 974-4334 -----Original Message----- From: Samantha Savvakis [mailto:samantha@cfs.net.au] Sent: Tuesday, October 31, 2000 8:21 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: RE: [PHP] php vs cold fusion Did this whole topic of conversation come from this new article on ZDNet? I missed the original thread. http://www.zdnet.com/enterprise/stories/linux/0,12249,2646052,00.html It pretty much bagged PHP in a sense. They say ColdFusion and JSP is the way to go. The article seemed a little biased to me. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
