| Lol, ruby on rails definetely is "in" alright. I couldn't be bothered looking into it, PHP suits me fine, why would I change. |
| ||||
| Mostly Python (either with self-written light framework under mod_python, or with Django), Common Lisp with tbnl (shame on you, you left it out The website I'm currently making money out of, sadly, is a PHP nightmare I wrote a few years ago. I keep meaning to port it to python. |

| http://python.ie/blackmagic/ First-class functions, duck typing, and so on. It's a nice language; I'd recommend anyone currently using PHP or ASP to at least give it a go. |

| What do you think is wrong with it? I think it's grand, real easy to learn. |
| ||||
| Hmm. First of all, it's possible for people to learn just enough to hang themselves in it without actually learning to program. Minor point. Weak typing. So, for instance, 1=='1' evaluates to true. Which is silly. - Big problem No namespaces (and apparently may not even be added for php6) - big problem No error on using undeclared variables. So if you type $cat where you meant to type $can, it won't, by default, warn. - big problem Built-in functions are a complete basket-case, with multiple functions for doing the same thing, inconsistent naming, inconsistent argument orders, etc - big problem magic_quotes and register_globals - silliness. (though neither are now default) Extremely weird scoping. No proper unicode. No real arrays. Ugly. I could go on. |

| No, not at all. There are a lot of people who know just enough PHP to cause a lot of damage. The barrier for entry is too low. |
