Re: Q:Why would anyone use ssLang other than PHP? Where would advantage be?

PHP is free, rapidly developing, a gizzilion support modules, thousands of HELPFUL developers, Open source, C like code (that actually makes sense at first look), runs on anything, is fast, and did I mention FREE? Forget about the rest. <?php

Hello, As an avid HTML, Javascript user who added basic PHP stuff and is slowly going deeper into PHP when I compare PHP to the others ASP, JSP, CGI, Java, etc... I have to ask why would anyone even look to something other than the beautiful and less arcance PHP in favor of the other horrendous choices? I just want to make sure I'm not missing something? I mean half the stuff I've seen in PHP was logically firgured out upon sight. I mean it didn't take a book to know that every time I see a $ as in "Value" the value of a variable was about to be proclaimed. And print goes back to good ol' basic. None of this evil and ugly,,, *import.bs.class.bs.ofsub.bs, followed by ten lines of arcane horror just to put an F'n graphic on the screen? PHP rocks! Please inform my small mind why I should even give a damn about the others. -Marcus -- Marcus James Christian UNLIMITED Multimedia Internet Design http://mjchristianunlimited.com Proudly presents the music of CHROMATICUS at http://www.mp3.com/chromaticus and http://chromaticus.com -- 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
