what web programming language is best? what web programming language is best?

which is best? I use all of them, I like php & asp.net

I voted for php, I've never tried asp or any of the others. But php can do almost anything dynamic I want it to do.

I have to agree. PHP used in conjunction with MySQL can make a very powerful team together. Transactions can also be made with PHP and MySQL. There's so much you can do.

i've used asp technology, php and perl before and enjoy using php and perl the most. there's no "best" though, sorry, as they're used for different things.

we all love php, lolfor me, perl is too hard, asp is too expensive. . .and php, jsut fine, easy to learn and easy to use.

PHP is an excellent programming language with countless uses online. I'd have to say that PHP is the most useful programming language when it comes to web programming.

One day, PHP will probably rule the web and replace HTML, its so powerful for free! Wish i had the time to learn it.

Umm... PHP and HTML are totally different things. PHP a programming language HTML a markup language. In web PHP cannot replace HTML or any other mark up language for that matter, they're not wrestling in the same league. PHP outputs HTML.

Currently, I like HTML-but PHP is probably the most powerful langugeHTML and JavaScript makes a good site. There are lots of scripts for JavaScript anyway.

In fact, we use html code in almost all of php-based web application. The role of php is undeniable but it must exist side by side with his html buddy

php, why? never used other ones

Yeah...php is the language

Your poll should be which server side web language.Anyways, I vote for PHP. Have tried php and perl. Perl is good for script to run on a u/linux server (like bat files). But for web, php is better

How can you hate PHP? Its free, powerful, and works with an amazing databases, MySQL, also free.

Many of these options are hard to compare, though. They all have their uses and many of the functionalities aren't comparable at all. Perl can be used for things PHP could never do, and vice versa.Appearantly most like PHP here.. I just voted PHP as I know no others, but I'd love to learn some Perl.By the way, I think using C, C++, Java is just as powerful and dynamic an option as using PHP. These languages aren't specifically designed for this kind of job, but their OO orientation allows them to go way further.Even though I heard PHP's going OO as well..
