Re^6: Perl/CGI Vs PHP Vs ASP

Hmmm... i am not trying to make YOU like PHP, Juerd, but you have to admit that some of my points are valid, or have some truth to it. Well, actually you don't have to admit anything you don't want to ;-)

I think you love to hate PHP a bit too much. But that's ok.

Oh, I'll be the first to admit that some of the features of PHP are good in ways that numerous camel people refuse to discover. But those features are all unrelated to the programming language, and can thus not be compared to Perl, because Perl itself is only a programming language with an interpreter, and not a templating language or an Apache module. There is a reason http://tnx.nl/php does not discuss CPAN, one of the strongest arguments in favour of Perl.
