>>The downside for me is that PHP freezes my fingers into a nearly automatic "go away, abomination" gesture ;-)
While I can handle JS much better than Hank and agree with him that Python code is easy to read at first encounter,
PHP is nothing for me to touch without mental hazard pay - and only for short stints ;-)
LOL. It's not that bad unless you do things from scratch. ;-) Add in some of the free jquery/php stuff and you can deliver some amazing results.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
