RE: [PHP-WIN] Tough decision ASP or PHP

Thanks for all the great feedback. IIS is probably a requirement. The problem with PHP and PDFs is when php has to send the headers for a PDF. IIS seems to get in the way. Does anyone have a workaround for sending headers though PHP and IIS?

This makes the pdfs very unreliable. I saw some of our code working on IIS and PDFs were just fine. This depends though. but, there are always work arounds and IIS is not any easier either. > > I am guessing that the isapi version of php would resolve this issue.

Think also about the stability in the long run - ASP needs more maintainance than PHP, even on IIS. -- Maxim Maletsky maxim@php.net
